Shon Burnett - Bang Bang It's Gone (Kids Protest Song) lyrics

rate me

VERSE 1:

You sit around, you loaf around, you’re a cataclysmic mess,

With your X-Box eyes and your Facebook lies you’re a second-rate man at best

Get out get out and demonstrate, consolidate, regenerate

‘Cause it’s goin’ down, it’s goin’ down, it’s goin’ down, it’s goin’ down

and…

CHORUS:

Bang, bang it’s gone and it ain’t ever coming back

No, baby, no, no, no, no, no, no no

Bang, bang it’s gone and it ain’t ever coming back

No, baby, no, no, no, no, no, no no

VERSE 2:

There’s a polar bear in my kitchen, yeah, and he’s asking me for ice

He says you’ve got your fancy car and now it’s time to pay the price

There are palm trees in Alaska, and the planet’s come unbound

And when the siren calls you go underground, you go underground, you go underground

cause…

CHORUS:

Bang, bang it’s gone and it ain’t ever coming back

No, baby, no, no, no, no, no, no no

Bang, bang it’s gone and it ain’t ever coming back

No, baby, no, no, no, no, no, no no

BREAK:

There’s no room on the ark for me baby

So stop your crying and let it be

And when I’m gone please remember

Please remember me

VERSE 3:

There are tumble weeds in my schoolyard and a sandstorm at my door

My generation is on its knees and my friends are on the floor

The Amazon is a desert and the whales can only cry

And when you around you can kiss it goodbye, kiss it goodbye, kiss it goodbye

and…

CHORUS x 2:

Bang, bang it’s gone and it ain’t ever coming back

No, baby, no, no, no, no, no, no no

Bang, bang it’s gone and it ain’t ever coming back

No, baby, no, no, no, no, no, no no
