Even If I Am Over the Hill
Even If I Am Over the Hill
What I will always desire
Is whole world to inspire
Have goals higher then I aspire
Use all my skills in their entire.
Rid world of guns that are plunder
In a disguise have all fallen under
Which has made us all wonder
Why anyone would do a blunder.
Suddenly on us started to dawn
What we earned was all gone
Part of game maybe a con
In Satan's clutches are a pawn.
Gun possessed by a moron
Many lives he did abscond
And hard times we fell upon
Of them we were never fond.
A helicopter we had rented
Slowly started and descended
And by us it was not intended
Warranty expired that was extended.
So this all of us it did appall
We were left with nothing at all
And it sure took a lot of gall
No guns sold in shopping mall.
Why would anyone have fun
Running around with a gun
Look at what they have done
In sight almost killed everyone.
Congress should create a bill
With gun no longer can kill
And prophecy we must fulfil
No guns even if over the hill.
