Song about Wernher Von Braun. If you actually read up on the guy, the song is a good description of him. He didn't set out to hurt people, but when he needed to for his research, his attitude was "to hell with the people". He selected slave labourers from death camps in germany to use, he didn't give a damn when his V2 rockets were killing civilians, all he cared about was his work. He escaped to America only because he thought the russians were gonna kill him. Had the russians captured him, he would have worked for them. He would have worked for anyone. So this song is very accurate.
"Once the rockets are up, who cares where they come down/That's not my department says Wernher Von Braun.
