Full Metal Jacket
I hope
your full metal jacket
keeps you
safe and warm
Shoot to conceive
Dying to grieve
Don't say soft-core
when every word
is armour-piercing
Your lips
have a high
muzzle-velocity
Don't say soft-tipped
when your tongue
is filled with fired cartridges
Bang!
I am out cold
Bang!
You are
a trigger-happy fool
your full metal jacket
keeps you
safe and warm
Shoot to conceive
Dying to grieve
Don't say soft-core
when every word
is armour-piercing
Your lips
have a high
muzzle-velocity
Don't say soft-tipped
when your tongue
is filled with fired cartridges
Bang!
I am out cold
Bang!
You are
a trigger-happy fool
