Class-rooms, where all can see
gun deaths and mis-er-y!
That’s why we ROAR!
Schools where our kids have died
as Con-gress runs to hide,
the N RA by their side
AS THEIR PROFITS SOAR!

Some teach-ers died for kids

took bull-ets meant for kids

Their names we love!

All those live shoot-er drills

Yet man-y still were killed!

Our hea-earts a-are sor-row filled!

seeing so much blood!

Kids have come to the fore

de-mand-ing we take more

con-trol of guns!

That is what it will take

to make our schoo-ools safe!

Gun nuts and all who hate!

You-ur time is done!
