Blanket - Shaolin Death Squad

If I kill one innocent person

To save 20 or more

Will I be a hero in your heaven

If I die to praise a lord?

I can perfect my Elvis Presley lip-curl

While I’m staring at the whole wide world

And I’m reporting to no one

Because the subversive is so much fun

I wonder what it’s like killing non-combatants

There is no such thing as a surgical strike

Whatever happens, happens

Maybe it will happen tonight

If I kill one innocent person

To save 20 or more

Will I be a hero in your heaven

If I die to praise a lord?

Is this just a justification?

Does testosterone make you serious?

Did I just give myself instructions to go numb and be furious?

I wonder what it’s like killing non-combatants

There is no such thing as a surgical strike

Whatever happens, happens

Maybe it will happen tonight

I’m about a quart low on milk of amnesia

It’s getting harder to be martyr

I’ve got violence running hot

I’ve got violence running cold

Whatever happens, happens

What’s your definition of…

I’ve got violence running hot

I’ve got violence running cold

Whatever happens, happens

What’s your definition of innocence?

If I kill one innocent person

To save 20 or more

Will I be a hero in your heaven

If I die to praise a lord?
