Bang Bang Bang

His stained pistol sang

In ones and two’s, and three’s

We fell to our knees

What a bloody fest,

Then twenty of us,

Were laid to rest.

A tisket, a tasket

They put us in wooden caskets.

Dear Children,

Rest in peace, 

We are sorry we did nothing

to make this world a safer place.
