Sam Colt called his a "Peace Maker" but it was just a life taker Sam Colt called his a "Peace Maker" but it was just a life taker, the gun It freed us from tyranny you'll find it throughout history, the gun, the gun And it's right there in our Bill of Rights In case we're forced into a fight, the gun, the gun But it's been used on seven presidents, killed children in their residence And young black men when they try to run, and we still believe the answer is the gun They show up each night on our TVs, the evening news and in movies, the gun We're so used to watching violent deaths we no longer even get upset, the gun, the gun Each day we issue more permits, demand for these things never quits, the gun, the gun And in all of this insanity of killing off humanity The whole world is shocked by what we've done And that we still believe the answer is the gun One gun in the hands of hate ends in tragedy How much bloodshed will it take before we finally see That we've got to make some changes, something must be done How can anyone still believe the answer is the gun? Something's really gone awry and no one seems to know just why, the gun Troubled people trigger random acts, killing sprees and suicide attacks, the gun, the gun School children live in fear each day, it's unsafe to gather when we pray, the gun, the gun While these tragedies unfold each day you can bet that the NRA Will do what they have always done Because they still believe the answer is the gun Do you believe the answer is the gun
