kids in their classroom sounds of fidgeting abound~ the crack of a gun a place of learning students taught by skilled teachers~ a classroom in shock. panic starts to run some will never walk again~ roses mark the spot a remembered smile your daughter went to that school~ tears spill from your eyes impossible sounds a child armed with a rifle~ schoolmates are shot dead politicians cry it rains alligator tears~ students on the march nothing will be done guns get sold to the insane~ profits are soaring here we go again children are drowning in blood~ thanks to N.R.A.
