I wonder if Bruce has ever had cockburn?

That belongs in the State of the Union thread. ;)

Bruce cockburn had a song called If I Had A Rocket Launcher
funny thinghe says he is a peace activist

Lyrics:

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...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...I would retaliate

On the Rio Lacantun, one hundred thousand 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...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...Some son of a bitch would die
 
I'm not sure what we're discussing here, but I like Port. Does that count?

I knew that. I was being....fa see shus.

Yes, I love that song. Irony and satire have their place in music too.
