lyrics

Pass Me The Rocket Launcher

Am G
We came down to the water, just like we had before,
The streetlights dark on the avenues, ever since the war.
Reverend Captain Jacob told us not to be afraid.
C E
We’ll fight the lies with our truth, backed up by hand grenades.

Refrain
D Am
Pass me the rocket launcher.
(Put your) night sight goggles on.
(Just the) normal preparations
E Am
(for a) protest march on Washington.

We still carry protest signs and we still sing our songs,
But it’s open season on our backs and the police are all long gone.
We used to ride in buses with flowers in our hair.
Now we’re ready for attack by land, sea, or air.
Refrain

We’re close now to the White House, weapons down, we go in twos.
You carry nothing past this checkpoint but bibles and tattoos.
Once elected by the people to serve, now sold to us to spy,
And infiltrate us as the enemy. Kiss the Bill of Rights goodbye.
refrain

If you speak out against the government or catch them in a lie,
Better have your travel plans all set. Here comes the F.B.I.
They ruined Valerie Plame just ‘cause Joe saw stuff that stank.
Gonna blow this story wide open. Next year we’ll bring the tank.
refrain
