if i had a rocket launcher

Singer:cockburn, bruce

here comes the helicopter

second time today

everybody scatters

and hopes it goes away

how many kids they've murdered

only god can say

if i had a rocket launcher

if i had a rocket launcher

if i had a rocket launcher

i'd make somebody pay

i don't believe in guarded borders

and i don't believe in hate

i don't believe in generals

or their stinking torture states

and when i talk with the survivors

of things too sickening to relate

if i had a rocket launcher

if i had a rocket launcher

if i had a rocket launcher

i would retaliate

on the rio lacantun

100

000 wait

to fall down from starvation

or some less humane fate

cry for guatemala

with a corpse in every gate

if i had a rocket launcher

if i had a rocket launcher

if i had a rocket launcher

i would not hesitate

i want to raise every voice

at least i've got to try

every time i think about it

water rises to my eyes

situation desperate

echoes of the victims' cry

if i had a rocket launcher

if i had a rocket launcher

if i had a rocket launcher

some son of a bitch would die
