Atmosphere on "Americareful" (September 7, 2010)

Artist: Atmosphere Song: Americareful Released: September 7, 2010

Lyric:

It’s your decision to correct a poor decision Alert the stork to stop, abort the mission Forced in a more horrible position When the doc got shot on the way into the building

Context (via Genius):

Slug defends the right of women to get an abortion, becaus people can choose for themselves. In this case, Katy can’t choose herself because her doctor is shot by violent opponents of abortion. There is a lot of violence against abortion clinic employees going on.

Also, look at the subtle way Slug talks about abortion, via “abort the mission”. The word “mission” also has a second meaning: opponents of abortion often have religious reasons for being against abortion, and “the mission” also refers to spreading around the faith.

The stork is of course the one who brings the kids when they get born:
