Oh Lord, won’t you buy me an AR-15
with hundreds of bullets and a big magazine
You know how I yearn for a killing machine
Oh Lord, won’t you buy me an AR-15

Oh Lord, save the children from history books
and factual knowledge – please don’t let them look
School kids get slaughtered, but it’s better than woke
Oh Lord, save the children from history books

Oh Lord, won’t you buy me a politician
who hates all the lib’rals and likes to offend
It’s ok with me if he rides with the Klan
Oh Lord, won’t you buy me a politician

Oh Lord, save the zygotes, protect them from harm
for each life is precious, until it is born
Sacrifice children to the god of firearms
Oh Lord, save the zygotes, protect them from harm

Oh Lord, won’t you buy me an AR-15
with hundreds of bullets and a big magazine
You know how I yearn for a killing machine
Oh Lord, won’t you buy me an AR
