You Can't Push A Bullet Back Into A Gun

By Artie Wayne



          STOP The Music

You can’t push a bullet back into a gun
You say that you’re sorry, but the damage is done
You may as well try to blow out the sun
You can’t push a bullet back into a gun

Little Jenny skippin’ rope in front of school
Starts to cry when a gang drives by shootin’ at some fool
But they miss their mark, escape through the park
While Jenny’s on the ground watchin’ the world get dark

You can’t push a bullet back into a gun
You say that you’re sorry, but the damage is done
You may as well try to blow out the sun
You can’t push a bullet back into a gun

A truck cuts crazy Bobby off out on highway four
Reaches into his pocket gotta’ even the score
Meanwhile, at the mall back against the wall
Some guy with a grudge says i’m gonna’ show ‘em all
Make ‘em fall watch ‘em crawl

[Chorus - twice in doubletime ]

Is it the stranger we should fear the most?
Or family and friends the ones who are close
It’s brother kills brother makin’ the news
A murdering wife tired of being abused
It’s a frustrated lover who just can’t go on
It’s a careless grandfather cleaning his gun
It’s a molested daughter who couldn’t escape
It’s a six year old son who finds dads ‘38

[Instrumental]

It’s a tale of envy or a tale of lust
It’s the monster hiding in every one of us
Now everyday we all have to pray
That some little country won’t blow the whole world away

You can’t push a bullet back into a gun
You say that you’re sorry, but the damage is done
You may as well try to blow out the sun
You can’t push a bullet back into a gun
