LYRICS
Acting like King Kong
Well, what went wrong
Show ya know mercy

Acting like Godzilla (God zilla God zilla)
Some kind-of serial killa’ (God killa’ God kill’ zilla God)
Show ya know mercy
Yeah! Show mo’ mercy
Acting like the CIA
Don’t care if I’m MIA
Show ya know mercy
Yeah! Show mo’ mercy
Just ’cause you’re from the USA
Hey! It doesn’t make it OK
Just ’cause you’re from the USA
Doesn’t make it OK
Don’t care if I’m DOA
Show ya know mercy
Yeah! Show mo’ mercy
LYRICS
Money
Like flies to honey
It’s the disease bringing people to their knees
It’s the disease bringing people to their knees
I say, “God!” as I fall to my knees, “give me some, please!”
(more money please)
While busker says the word
A gift from a lord
Brings back faith in prosperity
Money
Like flies to honey
It’s the disease bringing people to their knees
It’s the disease crippling people such as these
While the busker plays the chord
A flowerchild pulls her sword,
Blows bubbles… restores faith in humanity
Written and recorded on October 17, 2012 in West Chester, Pennsylvania. I had been playing the guitar part and just started writing the lyrics when a kind gentleman came over and gave me money. Then, a hippie-chick surprised me with a shower of bubbles. What a day to be thankful.
…credited with 505 confirmed kills of Soviet soldiers….
…accomplished in fewer than 100 days at a time of year… with very short hours of daylight….
…He preferred to use iron sights….
…put a Finnish finish on a Russian Mosin-Nagant….
…highest recorded number of confirmed sniper kills in any major war….
…Fact not folklore….
…Fact a folk lure….
…dressed completely in white camouflage….
…kept snow in his mouth, so that the vapor of his breath would not give him away….
…No scope, no breath….
…No way….
… White Death….
… White Death….
… White Death….
… let us take a shot…
… at changing our age…
… and care a lot…
… about our damage…
… no mirage….
… let us kill kill…
… until….
we are the death of death….
ABOUT THE SONG
The song is a tongue-in-cheek analogy of the famous Finnish sniper that used a Russian Mison-Nagant riffle to kill Russians (becoming the most famous hidden sniper in history.) In the same fashion, what if we tried to kill killing? What if we became the death of death… by not having any humans kill other humans?
