Cut them down in school that way?
Not I, said the man whose store
Sold the killer a weapon of war.
I remember it well, he just stopped by
Bought the gun and some beer like a regular guy
He might have been crazy, but how would I know?
When you're a kid-killer, it doesn't show.
No, I didn't cause those kids to fall
You can't blame me at all.
Who killed those kids today –
Cut them down in school that way?
Not us, said the NRA
We're pledged to defend the American Way
We need guns to protect, we need guns to fight
The 2nd Amendment is an American right
Shoot to defend is in the design
Give everyone guns – it'll all be fine!
No, we didn't cause those kids to fall
You can't blame us at all.

Cut them down in school that way?
Not I, said the President
Don't you see? It's evident
The guy was mad, the guy was sick
We need to arm the teachers Goddam quick
The votes of gunowners, that's what counts
And whatever I tell you on my Twitter account!!
No, I didn't cause those kids to fall
You can't blame me at all.
