YOU CAN’T PUSH A BULLET BACK INTO A GUN ’09
September 18, 2009
You Can’t Push A Bullet Back Into A Gun
You say that you’re sorry, but the damage is done
You may as well try to blow out the sun
You Can’t Push A Bullet Back Into A Gun
Little Jenny skippin’ rope in front of school
Starts to cry when a gang drives by, shootin’ at some fool
But they miss their mark, escape through the park
While Jenny’s on the ground, watchin’ the world get dark
You Can’t Push A Bullet Back Into A Gun
You say that you’re sorry but the damage is done
You may as well try to blow out the sun
You Can’t Push A Bullet Back into A Gun
A truck cuts crazy Bobby off out on highway four
Reaches into his pocket, gotta’ even the score
Meanwhile, at the mall, back against the wall
Some guy with a grudge says, ” I’m gonna’ show ‘em all
Make ‘em fall, watch “em crawl.
You Can’t Push A Bullet Back Into A Gun
You say that you’re sorry but the damage is done
You may as well try to blow out the sun
You Can’t Push A Bullet Back into A Gun
Is it the stranger we should fear the most?
Or family and friends, the ones who are close?
It’s brother kills brother makin’ the news
A murdering wife, tired of being abused
It’s a frustrated lover who just can’t go on
It’s a careless grandfather cleaning his gun
it’s a molested daughter who couldn’t escape
It’s a six year old son who finds dad’s ‘38
[Instrumental]
It’s a tale of envy or a tale of lust
It’s the monster hiding in everyone of us
Now everyday, we all have to pray
That some little country won’t blow the whole world away
You Can’t Push A Bullet Back Into A Gun
You say that you’re sorry but the damage is done
You may as well try to blow out the sun
You Can’t Push A Bullet Back Into A Gun

Nice.Your pretty talented. Whole lot of truth there. It’s sad it happens. They should put this in text books in schools.

Artie we have had plenty of sad cases here in South Africa through violence in one form or another. Amazing lyrics!
