GUN VIOLENCE. In commemoration of 20 years of circuitous talk and no action.

lyrics

It’s murder!

It’s murder!

Attention all units we’ve got a 245
Head West on Loxahatchee rd and south on N.U. drive
Another student harvest under the firing pin The feds are
drawing straws to see who contacts hIS next of kin, and her next of kin, and all of today’s next of kin.

It’s murder! That’s what some people say
To sit on your hands and ignore it hoping it all goes away
It’s murder! That’s what some people say
Political loss when counting the cost will kill any calls for change

Revenge is served up in an AR magazine
He packed a mental selfie of every nasty thing they’ve done to him
Some argue the statistics are merely hype and bluff.
And that could well be true but surely isn’t one death enough? Just one death’s enough? But surely just one lifes enough?

It’s murder! That’s what some people say
To sit on your hands and ignore it hoping it all goes away
It’s murder! That’s what some people say
Political cost when counting the loss will kill any call for change

Best Solution, all the while is to
take the teachers to the supplier
Give the principal a pump-action rifle,
for the Library teachers silencers are required
Train lunch ladies to become snipers,
have the History teachers returning musket fire
Laser guns for teachers of science
Maybe teaching the value of life would be wiser

(Train the principal to fight,
the lunch ladies aim their pistols left and right,
science teachers laser beams are burning bright)


It’s murder! That’s what some people say
To sit on your hands and ignore it hoping it all goes away
It’s murder! That’s what some people say
Political cost when counting the loss will kill any change

It’s murder! That’s what some people say
To sit on your hands and ignore it hoping it all goes away
It’s murder! That’s what some people say
We’re trying to understand but from over here this all seems insane.
