[Verse 1]
Do you need
To open your heart
Minimize the bleed
Well, here’s how to start
.. to let some love depart
[Chorus]
Sternal retractor
Helps to separate
Critical factor
In removing the hate
(Opening your heart’s a start)
[Bridge]
Hope all goes well…
(Hand me a scalpel)
Do you see…
(A sternal saw)
Setting love free
(Angels in awe)
[Verse 2]
So you concede
Love is a basic need
Minimize the bleed
While you let some love out
If you feel pain, just shout!
[Chorus]
Sternal retractor
Helps to separate
Critical factor
In removing the hate
(Opening your heart’s a start)
[Bridge]
Hope all goes well…
(Hand me a scalpel)
Do you see…
(A sternal saw)
Setting love free
(Angels in awe)
[Chorus]
Sternal retractor
Helps to separate
Critical factor
In removing the hate
(Opening your heart’s a start)
[Bridge]
[Instrumental, Whistle Solo]
Hope all goes well…
(Hand me a scalpel)
Do you see…
(A sternal saw)
[Outro]
Setting love free
(Angels in awe)
ABOUT THE SONG
The rise in cruelty and the normalization of sadism among Trump supporters are evident in several unsettling examples. Kristi Noem’s appointment as Homeland Security Director follows her unapologetic boasting about killing an “untrainable” dog she despised, which received applause from supporters. Similarly, Stephen Miller’s reemergence as Deputy Chief of Staff highlights far-right cruelty, including his infamous role in family separations, anti-immigrant policies, and white nationalist rhetoric. Many Trump supporters are referring to the extensive list of controversial and empathy-lacking nominations and appointments as their ‘dream team.’
