lyrics

VERSE 1
The monsters we prefer are in the ground and can’t make a sound
Cause we know they’re like you and me with a strange disease
A sick man with a gun shot John Lennon
He’s on the run shooting at…

CHORUS
Everyone says, “isn’t it horrible what he did?!”
Then we don’t change a thing but we all say,
“isn’t it horrible that he’s in the news again?!”

VERSE 2
Oh how the world weeps then forgets, they have a memory short as a goldfish’s
He’s the dirty dish in the kitchen sink that we all see but hate to clean
A sick man with a gun shot 20 children
He’s on the run shooting at…

CHORUS
Everyone says, “isn’t it horrible what he did?!”
Then we don’t change a thing but we all say,
“isn’t it horrible that he’s in the news again?!”

BRIDGE
The bully at the pulpit shouts, “we mustn’t forget our freedom or God’s only son!”
Cause happiness is a warm gun

CHORUS
Yeah we all say, “isn’t it horrible what he did?!”
Then we don’t change a thing but we all say,
“isn’t it horrible that he’s in the news again?!”
Yeah he’s still on the run shooting at everyone…
