Happiness Is a Warm Gun

John Lennon, Paul McCartney

John Lennon was shot here, at the entrance to the Dakota building.
Lennon was shot four times with a 38 caliber gun,
In what seems to be a totally senseless killing.

[DR. EDISON AMOS]
The second amendment gives the right of the people to keep and bear arms.
This is a dispute which is going on in America now.
We should work diligently to keep this second amendment in place,
For any individual with responsibility-
Let me repeat again, responsibility and boundaries of those who are priviledged,
To be a part of all of these twenty-seven amendments,
Of the Constitution of the United States of America,
Plus the Declaration of Independence.

[GEORGE W. BUSH]
I believe that uh, people who are gonna commit crimes shouldn't have guns.

[GEORGE BUSH, SR.]
I guess my reaction is the same as every other father's, every other grandfather's.
My heart goes out to the people- to the victims.
Because I don't understand how kids can be out there, they're out making bombs,
And, and uh, and uh, families being totally unaware of it-
With this culture going on. And I'm as troubled by it as anybody else,
And I don't know any answers.

[TORI]
Happiness is a warm gun, happiness is a warm gun, Mama.
Happiness is a warm gun, oh, Mama.
Mother Superior jump the gun. Mother Superior jump the a-gun-ahuha...
Mother Superior a-jump the gun. Mother Superior jump the a-gun, the gun, gun a-da-da.
Mother Superior jump the- a-gun.

Mother Superior jump the a-gun. Mother Superior jump the a-gun, and I said-ad.
Mother Superior jump the a-gun, I said, I'm gonna,
Mother Superior jump the a-gun, a-jump the a-gun.

She's not a girl who misses much.
(DR. EDISON AMOS: In these ten bill of rights,
Each one gives the people a special right.)
She's not a girl who misses much.
(DR. EDISON AMOS: This second one is a right to bear arms.)
Ah. She's well acquainted with the touch,
She's well acquainted with the touch of the velvet hand-a.
