  1. Gun Reform (After Parkland)
    1. Too many dying and families crying,
      We need to rein in the guns and do it Now! Now! Now!
      We’re gonna build a better future
      And we’re gonna start right now.

      We all bewail those gun show sales.
      We don’t want weapons of war being sold in stores.
      We’re gonna build a better future
      And we’re gonna start right now.

      We need to get those background checks,
      And keep the guns from the ones who’d kill us Now! Now! Now!
      We’re gonna build a better future
      And we’re gonna start right now.

      In Las Vegas in Orlando,
      In Sandy Hook and Columbine, and in Parkland, too,
      The blood was spilling; we must be willing,
      To speak out for gun reform.

      We are a-wa-re that thoughts and pra-yers
      Will not stop all the guns now in the killers’ hands;
      We need new laws that do much more
      And we demand to have them now!

      You politicians who might be wishin
      That you can wash all the blood from your complicit hands;
      Break with the N-R-A!We need new laws today,
      And we demand to have them now!

      No more waiting or hesitating!
      We must fight with all our might for stronger gun reform!
      We’re gonna build a better future
      And we’re gonna start right now.
