the sun is setting on the century   and we armed to the teeth   we're all working together now   to make our lives mercifully brief   schoolkids keep trying to teach us   what guns are all about   confuse liberty with weaponry   and watch your kids act it out   every year now like christmas   some boy gets the milkfed suburban blues   reaches for the available arsenal   and saunters off to make the news   and the women in the middle   arelearning what poor women have always known   that the edge is closer than you think   whe your men bring the guns home      look at where the profits are   that's how you'll find the source   of the big lie that you and i   both know so well   in the time it take this cultural   death with to run its course   they're gonna make a pretty penny   and then they're all going ot hell   he said the chickens all come home to roost   yeah malcolm forecasted this flood   are we really gonna sleep through another century   while the rich profit off our blood?   true it may take some doing   to see this undoing through   but in my humble opinion   here's what i suggest we do      open fire on hollywood   open fire on MTV   open fire on NBC   and CBS and ABC   open fire on the NRA   and all the lies they told us   along the way   open fire on each weapons manufacturer   while he's giving head   to some republican senator      and if i hear one more time   about a fool's right   to his tools of rage   i'm gonna take all my friends   and i'm gonna move to canada   and we're gonna die of old age
