Goodbye NRA


So, I originally wrote this on 6/23/2016 after the pulse night club shooting. I have rewritten the last two verses to include the children of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland Florida. When all the factions fighting for their own causes unify into one cause, the cause of and for humanity, then, maybe, we can have peace. Until the the struggle continues.

Oh I know there are blue skies in heaven

And a Shepard will lead us the way

And I know there’s a gold road in heaven

oh high above the chimney tops but not that far away

And I know there’re Bohemians in heaven

I hear their Rhapsody is sung everyday

yes, it’s on heavy rotation in heaven

and everywhere angels congregate

From Leviticus to bathroom laws

You think you stop us just because?

Well we’ve got Good News just for you

Truth, Love and Justice will always come through

Oh I know there’s a high school in heaven

17 beautiful students on their way

Yes I know they’ll be learning us in heaven

how to finally put those guns away

Beware the power of knowledge

That’s right babe we’re comin’ next for you.

We will turn all your guns into school books,

Have you seen lately what we kids can do?

Say na na na na na goodbye NRA

Say na na na na na goodbye NRA

Say na na na na na goodbye NRA

Say na na na na na goodbye NRA

repeat, fade

original last two verses

Oh I know there's a disco in heaven

49 beautiful dancers on their way

Yes I know it’s a gay bar in heaven

Salsa night took them all away

Beware the power of the rainbow

That’s right babe we’re comin’ next for you.

We will melt all your guns into dildos,

Have you seen lately what we queers can do?
