programmes of violence as entertainment
brings the disease into your room
we know the germ which is man-made in metal

is really a key to your own tomb
prevention is better than cure
bad apples affecting the pure

you'll gather your senses I'm sure, then agree to
melt the guns melt the guns
melt the guns and never more to fire them

melt the guns melt the guns
melt the guns and never more desire them
children will want them mothers supply them

as long as your killers are heroes.
and all the media will fiddle while Rome burns
acting like modern-time Neros.

prevention is better than cure
bad apples affecting the pure
you'll gather your senses I'm sure then agree to

melt the guns melt the guns
melt the guns and never more to fire them
melt the guns melt the guns

melt the guns and never more to desire them.

I'm speaking to the justice league of America

the U.S of A, hey you, yes you in particular!
when it comes to - the judgement day
and you're stood at the gates with your weaponry

you dare clasp your hands in prayer
and start quoting me’ cos we say....
our father we've managed to contain the epidemic

in one place now
let's hope they shoot themselves instead of others
help to sterilize the race now.

we've trapped the cause of the plague
in the land of the free and the home of the brave
if we listen quietly we can hear them shooting

from grave to grave.
you ought to melt the guns melt the guns
melt the guns and never more to fire them

melt the guns melt the guns
melt the guns and never more desire them.
