Ideas vs. Protocol vs. Malotov Songtext
von Before Braille

He had a semi-automatic rifle
Semi-automatic, are you sure?
Yes, I′m sure
Anything else?
Yes, he had something else
What, what is it boy?
Don't call me that
Something more dangerous?
Yes, duh
Come on, I′m not a mind-reader!
I was going to say molotov cocktails too
But, you called me boy and you know I don't like that
Okay, you don't have to get hostile!
I am what I am, now go get those commies!


Fabricate answers
For all the questions
Just like a Molotov
Alarms are sounding
The dogs will tire
Before we′ll ever call them off
(What? Grrr.)
Ignite the answers
By poignant questions
Just try a Molotov
The answer is grinning at you
The answer is barking
Come on, come on
Ginning up!

No idea worth protocol
No idea worth protocol
Worth protocol

They blame the factions
For fractured lessons
Their bones are getting soft
He′s (barely breathing)
And (spousal killing)
Come-on boys, he's had enough!

Fanning flames when their hands are waving
And either burning or getting up

You play with matches
I play with fire
You play with matches
I play with fire

No ideas worth protocol
No ideas worth protocol
Worth protocol


This is unfinished business
You′ll know it's finished when you see our smoking guns
Create curriculum in its place
Ideas waste
They hide them because they have
No ideas of their own!
