Here comes the Boeing F35, twenty times a day
Everybody scatters and hopes it goes away
How many kids they’ve murdered no one 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 Gaza borders, and I don’t believe in hate
I don’t believe in IDF or their stinking Apartheid state
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 Raffah border, two million Palestinians wait
To fall down from starvation, or some less humane fate
Cry for Palestina, with a corpse at 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, those Zionists would pay.
It was a slow genocide and then came October 8 after Hamas got out the gates
Breaking down the fence made a lot a sense
They were gonna die any way livin in open air prison what a big decision
The UN said enough we’re worried about all the dead
we’ll declare a Palestine state instead
If I had a rocket launcher, if I had a rocket launcher
If I had a rocket launcher, I’d have my say and make those Zionists pay.

Very good adaptation of Bruce’s song, which came to my mind just the other day when they allowed that piece of shit to speak at the UN.
