Ring up the deaths
From sticks and stones
And slingshots
Knives and clubs
T.N.T.
And nuclear bombs
Their total sum
By year 2010
Counts fewer deaths
Than guns
The chosen tool
That beats 'em all
North and south
East and west
Guns can't be outdone
Say thank you NRA
And get your gun

Ring up the deaths
From sticks and stones
And slingshots
Knives and clubs
T.N.T.
And nuclear bombs
Their total sum
By year 2010
Counts fewer deaths
Than guns
The chosen tool
That beats 'em all
North and south
East and west
Guns can't be outdone
Say thank you NRA
And get your gun
