lyrics

Jesus Christ gave nice advice but how can we begin
“Doing unto others” when they’re sworn to do us in
Till that tarnished Golden Rule is practiced far and wide
I propose a way for us to stay uncrucified

Chorus:
Gonna build a missile to stop the abuse
Fill it up with anger -- truth for a fuse
Cut thru the confusion -- sound the alarm
Instant retribution when we detonate ourselves a little karma bomb

Dominick’s a clever prick who teaches English Lit
Dominates his girlfriend with his lies his size his fists
Twice her weight and twice her age and not one-tenth as kind
She must close the book on him to liberate her mind

(Chorus)

There is not a spot on earth where Exxon would not drill
Flouting safety measures, flirting with a spill
We should take the CEO and all the top VPs
Coat them with petroleum from their goddamn Valdez

(Chorus)

If somebody bashes you because of who you love
Don’t just turn your cheek and wait for justice from above
Justice doesn’t come till they lie moaning in the mud
Oozing out a pint or two of homophobic blood

Here’s a little paradox that almost makes me laugh
In the name of life somebody shot the chief of staff
Let us lead this terrorist directly to his fate
Let’s abort him with a bullet 30 years too late

(Chorus)

...instant retribution when we detonate ourselves!
