What the Fbi Says

FBI Says According to the FBI and the statistics that they keep The number of murders by hammer and club has gotten pretty steep In fact they outnumber the murders committed with a rifle A statistic that the media is oh so rife to stifle And they say that twice as many are killed by hand and fists Then by any long guns according to their lists So worry about the carpenter or that guy with the walking stick And carry a gun in case you do run into one of these guys too quick If you encounter a thug with a hammer Who appears to want to do harm A gun in your hand will make that guy stammer Right before he buys the farm Now I’ve spent a career With statistics and fear You can twist them till they sing your song To have or have not A gun – take a shot And I’m sure someone says you are wrong You could poll the nation Asking each generation From grandson to dear old grandpa But let’s use common sense Not just claim self defense When it comes to our guns and the law
