Guns On The Roof Lyrics

    I swear by almighty god
    To tell the whole truth
    And nothing but the truth

    Guns guns
    They torture all the women and children
    Then they've put the men to the gun
    'cos across the human frontier
    Freedom's always on the run

    Guns guns a-shaking in terror
    Guns guns killing in error
    Guns guns guilty hands
    Guns guns shatter the lands

    A system built by the sweat of the many
    Creates assassins to kill off the few
    Take any place and call it a court house
    This is a place where no judge can stand

    Sue the lawyers and burn all the papers
    Unlock the key of the legal papers
    A jury of a billion faces
    Shouted out condemned out of hand

    Guns guns, and nobody's kidding
    Guns guns, or foolin' around
    Guns guns, the violence is singing
    Guns guns, a silence the sound

    'n i iike to be in aferica
    A-beatin' on the final drum
    'n i like to be in u.s.s.r.
    Makin' sure these things will come
    'n i like to be in u.s.a.
    Pretending that the wars are done
    'n i like to be in europa
    Saying goodbye to everyone

    Guns guns there's guns on the roof
    Guns guns they're made to shoot
