Texty: Tori Amos. Happnies Is A Warm Gun.
GUY SPOKEN:
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 Consititution of the United States of America,
Plus the Declaration of Independance.
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.
