about

Written after the Columbine shooting. Americans...what can you say that hasn't already been said about the crazy bastards? I like them but my God their society is in a mess.

lyrics

(Spoken) There are 296 Million people living in America and more than 220 Million Guns. In 1997 there were 10,369 gun related murders. Fathers, Mothers, Sisters, Brothers. Many Americans opposed the Brady Bill gun legislation on the grounds that they did not think they should have to wait 5 working days for approval to buy an assault rifle or a handgun....

God Bless America
Land of the free
God help anyone
Try to take my gun from me

I can have a machine gun
Says so in the constitution
As approved by Thomas Jefferson
If he could I know he would

God Bless America
God Bless America
God Bless America
Land that I love
Stand beside her and guide her
With the light of the stars above

(Spoken) Thomas Jefferson wrote in 1785 'Gun use gives boldness, enterprise and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball and others of that nature are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be your constant companion of your walks.'
A lot of Americans go along with that. It kind of explains a few things

I can have a handgun
Says so in the constitution
As approved by Thomas Jefferson
If he could I know he would

From the mountains
To the prairies
To the ocean white with foam
God Bless America
With gun and ammo in every home

God Bless America
God Bless America
God Bless America

God Bless America
Land of the free
Free to load to aim and fire
In the name of Liberty

Huh!

God Bless America
God Bless America
God Bless America
God Bless America
