Haven't You Heard the News? Songtext
von Solo

Seven thousand miles from here
Far away, yet so near
Guns become a part
Of a playground play

Hold on tight to the tender gun
Killing kids at Columbine, all rerun
It happened only yesterday

Haven′t you heard the news?
A killer is on the loose
But we are here to stay
We're not afraid
If ever they needed proof
Stand by me and tell them it will not be you


Thanks for coming out tonight
Showing up, not petrified
Thanks for showing you have not yet taken fright

Mild and meek the powers that bleed
A sad belief, their self-deceit
Vengeance comes to those that don′t pray anyway

Haven't you heard the news?
A killer is on the loose
But we are here to state we're not afraid
If ever they needed proof
Stand by me and tell them it will not be you

And if you′re bothered
Don′t you brother
I rely on you and you can rely on me
It's only the two of us eventually
If ever we needed proof
Stand by me and tell them it will not be you
