I have spent my life
looking through a window
at the colourful parade
my search for a door was futile
I really can't see a way in
no one notices me here
banging, shouting, waving
but I will make them look
I will make them stare
aghast in disbelief
I will cause a reverberation
around the world, steal screen time
in news reports and on tv
people will ask why, why
what went so wrong
how can we stop this
from ever happening again
Well there are all kinds of crazies in the world, sometimes you just have to let them in, but above all and most importantly, keep them away from guns.

I have spent my life
looking through a window
at the colourful parade
my search for a door was futile
I really can't see a way in
no one notices me here

I will make them stare
aghast in disbelief
I will cause a reverberation
around the world, steal screen time
in news reports and on tv
people will ask why, why
what went so wrong
how can we stop this
from ever happening again
Well there are all kinds of crazies in the world, sometimes you just have to let them in, but above all and most importantly, keep them away from guns.
