The Gun Song

Put down the gun. (13x)
Put it down.

"Shut up!" he said,
"Let me speak for a minute.
Or two, or three.
Now you're gonna stop interupting me."
So whatcha do, 'cause looking at his face shows a life revealing years of pain.
So we'll drop down, let go, only 'cause he said so.

Boys, with shiny, violent, killing toys.
It's all a bit to real now, noise.
The cycle will continue, boys.

Shut up!
My turn,
to be heard.

The voices are all that occur to him.
And now he's blaming everyone, 'cause he's always been a victim.
Filled with rage.
Heart beatin' so fast, don't set him off.
I tried to make a move,
but a little voice said,
"Shut up, or I'll kill ya!"

Put it down. (3x)
"Shut up, or I'll kill ya!"
Put it down. (5x)

Boys, with shiny, violent, killing toys.
It's all a bit to real now, noise.
The cycle will continue, boys.
'Cause we cant all be heroes.
Boys, with shiny, violent, killing toys.

Scatter gun!

Its a war game making enemies and allies
Scatter gun!
Push too hard, too fast, totally off side.
Scatter gun!
Big gun in the hands of a greedy man.
Scatter gun!
Take a hit, take a shot, just to take a stand.
