Harte }} "That's When I Reach for My Revolver" is a song by Mission of Burma that was written and sung by band member Clint Conley. It appears on their 1981 EP Signals, Calls and Marches. Moby covered the song in 1996 and released it as a single, reaching number fifty on the UK Singles Chart. The title is a reference to the often-mistranslated quotation commonly attributed to Hermann Göring: "When I hear the word 'culture', that's when I reach for my revolver" — the actual quote is "Wenn ich Kultur höre ... entsichere ich meinen Browning!" This translates as: "Whenever I hear [the word] 'culture'... I remove the safety from my Browning!" The line is uttered by the character Thiemann in Act 1, Scene 1 of the play Schlageter, written by Hanns Johst. Catherine Wheel versionCatherine Wheel recorded a version of "That's When I Reach for My Revolver" for their 1992 EP 30 Century Man. Notably, the song also features slightly altered lyrics from the original, such as the replacement of "The spirit fights to find its way" with "That feeling passes by this way".
