Mass Shooting

[Verse One] Once upon a time on the hill You could kill a man and call it free will You could take your handgun and shoot him in the sun- Once upon a time on the hill [Verse Two] You could blame it on the food we eat Or the drugs you can buy in the street But the kids got handguns at 16 years young- You can blame it on the food we eat [Verse Three] You can blame it on your old man Or all the things that you never had But no machine gun is gonna bring back your mum- You can blame it on your old man [Verse Four] You can blame it on the games we play Or all the violence we said was okay You can blame the Playstation for the void in the nation- You can blame it on the games we play [Verse Five] You can blame it on bad education You can blame it on cheap medication If you take all those pills they'll take your free will- Don't blame it on the children [Verse Six] You can blame it on Jesus Christ Or the absence he left in your life You can blame it on the police; You can blame it on the streets- But don't blame it on Jesus Christ [Instrumental] [Verse Seven] Ain't it strange you can buy your ammunition At the same place you buy your Ritalin? And if you've got an I.D., You can kill the whole team- Just don't blame it on the children [Verse Eight] And it seems the news today Is the same as it was yesterday And there's blood on their hands Till they get the guns banned- Can't watch the news today [Verse Nine] So sing me this lullaby And sleep as the bullets fly 'Cause somethings gotta change in the home of the brave Just blame it all on freedom
