Lyrics

PUT DOWN YOUR GUN

But seem confused by another dead

Fear fear fear fear
Guns guns guns guns

Stop living in fear
Put down your gun
Stop living in fear
Put down your gun

Middle-class fools, self centred rich
Brainwashed villains that poison the sick
We need education, oh we need it bad
If we live in a world where God hates

Fear fear fear fear
Guns guns guns guns

Stop living in fear
Put down your gun
Stop living in fear
Put down your gun

Let's get married, things can really change
I love you all, so wild, so free, so strange
There is a future, but it's still unknown
So show you care and scream it from your lungs

Love love love love
All all all all

We're all the same
Put down your gun
We're all the same
Put down your gun
Stop living in fear
Put down your gun
Stop living in fear
Put down your gun
