American guns, are shooting up the boys and girls
American guns, are shooting up the whole damn world
they will shoot you if you’re black
they will shoot you if you’re Gaul
they will shoot you for a reason
they will shoot for none at all
every ones in fear that they’re coming here
every one’s afraid that they’re on their way
the world would be a better place
but they’re shootin up the human race
they will you in the playground
they will shoot a president
they will shoot outside your mansion
they will shoot you in a tent
they will shoot you for reporting
they will shoot you having fun
can you live a peaceful life
with all those American guns
“Drop your weapon and put your hands in the air”
Sibelius PDF fie: American guns
I am an American and I hate guns.

Thank you for your response. I know it’s a very serious subject everywhere but especially in America of which I have no experience. Only what I have read or seen on TV etc. The song was prompted by a book by Iain Overton. He writes that s its not only people who suffer but also wildlife as well. It seems that if one person maybe a neighbour buys a gun then another neighbour will feel they have to buy one also and so it escalates, it must be a hard choice for some people to not own them.
