OSI's "Hello Helicopter!" lyrics meaning?

[somebody456]

I'm kinda addicted to this song recently and was wondering about these lyrics. Kevin writes such interesting lyrics. Thanks in advance for any answers!

"Well at least this time you were right
And you had the good sense to give up
Yeah, when others they might've hung in
so just nobody touch me, I know what I'm doing

Can I destroy that for you, ma'am?
Can I destroy that for you, mister?

It looks good on you
It looks good on you
but these things look better broken
Hello, Helicopter!

Well I hope this time we were right
'cause it looks a little worse every day
There's another one flying tonight
and I hope it don't make it
I know what we're doing

Can I destroy that for you ma'am?
Can I destroy that for you, mister?
It looks good on you it looks good on you
but these things look better broken
Hello, Helicopter! "

See this interview someone posted on the Mooreatorium facebook page:

What were some of the inspiration for the song names on OSI. EG: Hello Helicopter.

That song was about the the US supplying military arsenals to foreing countries to protect our own national interests. Mainly i was thinking about israel/palestine.
