‘And A Child Shall Lead Them’ — #Lyrics To A Pop-Rock Anti-Gun Protest Song

No one cares about anything I write, but I find writing song lyrics every once in a while relaxing. So, this would be a Radiohead type song but with very pointed and bang-you-over-the-head anti-gun lyrics. The lyrics are about how maybe, just maybe, things have changed because of the efforts of the Parkland children. We can only hope.

And A Child Shall Lead Them
lyrics by Shelton Bumgarner
@bumgarls
please give credit if you produce or perform

in a crisis I don’t act
I plan my counter attack
adults act like children
playing their petty, petty games
paid for in the blood of innocents
all we can hope for is the truth
laid out in the good book

and a child shall lead them
is what they say
and a child shall lead them
we can only pray

they NRA claims the legacy press
lusts for more blood for its ink
we all know that’s bullshit
something we can call
like a cat in heat
on a hot summer day
in the end all that’s left
is what the good book says

and a child shall lead them
is what they say
and a child shall lead them
we can only pray

[bridge]
we’re all going to fight
unite, unite, unite
until things change
we won’t complain

and a child shall lead them
is what they say
and a child shall lead them
we can only pray
