Bang Bang Bang

what you go and do

you go and give the boy a gun

now there ain't place to run to

ain't no place to run to

when he hold it in his hand

he feel mighty he feel strong

now there ain't no place to run to

ain't no place to run



one day he may come back

repay us for what we've done

then where you gonna run to

where you gonna run



but one fine day

all our problems will be solved

bang bang bang

we'll shoot him down



give him drugs and give him candy

anything to make him think he's happy

and he won't ever come for us

he won't ever come



but if he does

and if there's no one else around

bang bang bang

we'll shoot him down



if he preys only on his neighbors

brothers sisters and friends

we'll consider it a favor

we'll consider justice done



but if he comes for you or me

and we can place a gun in his hand

bang bang bang

we'll shoot him dead



what you go and do

you go and give the boy a gun

now there ain't no place to run to

ain't no place to run



now we'll all be at his mercy

if he decides to hunt us down

cause there ain't no place to run to

ain't no place to run



if he wants the chances that you took from him

and nothing that you own

then there'll be no place to run to

there'll be no place to run



and if he finds himself to be

a reflection of us all

bang bang bang

he'll shoot us down



before you can raise your eyes to read

the writing on the wall

bang bang bang

he'll shoot you down



before you can bridge the gulf between

and embrace him in your arms

bang bang bang

he'll shoot you down
