Lyrics

The gunman kills the children, yet we all do nothing
The gunman kills the children, how many is enough?
The gunman kills the woman, yet we all do nothing
The gunman kills the woman, how many is enough?
How many is enough, Lord?
How many is enough?
How many will it take, Lord, till we say enough?
The gunman kills the gay man, yet we all do nothing
The gunman kills the gay man, how many is enough?
The gunman kills the black man, yet we all do nothing
The lawman kills the black man, how many is enough?
How many is enough, Lord?
How many is enough?
How many will it take, Lord, till we say enough?
Now, the gunman kills the lawman, because we all do nothing
The gunman kills the lawman, how many is enough?
The gunman will kill us all, man, unless we do something
The gunman will kill us all, man, till we say enough
How many is enough, Lord?
How many is enough?
How many will it take, Lord, till we say enough?
The gunman killed those children and we did nothing
The gunman killed those children, how many is enough?
