Beneath The Ashes Mia Lyrics

Mia Lyrics

Here's my song about gun control



As my politics begin to roll



Things are getting out of control



It's time to stop, drop and rock 'n' roll







We built and sold them the guns



Made in America







Glued to the tube TV before Dallas 1963



It was assumed baby boomers



Bloomed doomed to ruin the country



But who knew the children of Normandy



Soon would resume war with Vietnamese



Overseas, we sent 18 year-olds to bleed



Face it, like Oswald woke the nation



Osama woke my generation



Now the kids of Nintendo



If drafted will attend the



Bush administration family agenda



Of bending back hands and sending children



Attacking Iraqi lands and buildings



So Cheney can rebuild for 200 billion



They'll disarm the regime but not the children







We built and sold them the guns



Made in America







Sacrificing our kids lives for global crisis



While fools of the NRA



Watch kids shoot kids in high schools



With tools they say kill deer



Not fill pools of blood



And guts, and tears, and the love and trust



We lent to the government



That's here to protect not just guns but us



Don't place blame on video games



Marilyn Manson or NWA



How can we blame them for the situation?



When an Alzheimer's patient



Leads the Nation Rifle Association







We built and sold them the guns



Made in America







I'm a Reagan Baby



My formative years are the 1980s



Russian production and reduction



Of weapons of mass destruction



Happened already



Even the Cuban missile crisis



Had pictures of bombs throughout the island



To sway bias



And now we hide behind bombs



Dropped on innocent moms



Ignoring gun control and dropping stocks



Senate majority leaders opposing '57 Little Rock



While we annihilate North Korea, Iran and Iraq



If the government shoots first



To stimulate commerce



Things are only going to get worse



If the government shoots first







We built and sold them the guns



Made in America







We sold them the same guns



That are now facing back towards us



And what do we do?



We go over there



But until we view here and there as the same place



We will always be fighting another religion, another race



There are peaceful solutions



There are peaceful resolutions



Peace
