HAND GRENADE (FOR JESUS) – My mom took me to church most every Sunday during the Vietnam war. I missed the draft by a year. We all lived with Walter Cronkite’s voice reverberating in our heads for years. All this background must have mattered because this song materialized in my head one afternoon while hammering nails into rafters on tract homes out in Las Vegas. This song is my mom’s favorite. Surprised, I asked why such a lovely church-going lady would like this off-kilter tune about religion and armory weapons, her reply was: “I can dance to it.” Fair enough.
