Would I be amused
|
Would you be impressed
|
That I had the power
|
To put a hole into your chest?
|
When the kids are crying
|
After the welfare check's been spent
|
Would I rob a liquor store
|
To get money for the rent?
|
|
If I, if I had a gun, if I had a gun
|
If I had a gun, if I had a gun, if I had a gun
|
|
Would I start smoking Marlboros?
|
Would I stop smoking Kents?
|
Would I gain some new respect?
|
Would I gain some confidence?
|
Would I suddenly go crazy
|
And shoot my family
|
And see myself years later
|
On some crime show on TV
|
|
If I, if I had a gun, if I had a gun
|
If I had a gun, if I had a gun, if I had a gun
|
|
Would I wear it in a holster?
|
Would I keep it concealed?
|
Would I put it on the table
|
Every time that I'm misdealed?
|
When I hear a nearby gunshot
|
When I'm up at night alone
|
Would I feel a little safer
|
Here in my urban home
|
|
If I, if I had a gun, if I had a gun
|
If I had a gun, if I had a gun, if I had a gun
|
|
