If It Were Up To Me
Maybe it's the movies, maybe it's the books
Maybe it's the bullets, maybe it's the real crooks
Maybe it's the drugs, maybe it's the parents
Maybe it's the colors everybody's wearin
Maybe it's the President, maybe it's the last one
Maybe it's the one before that, what he done
Maybe it's the high schools, maybe it's the teachers
Maybe it's the tattooed children in the bleachers
Maybe it's the Bible, maybe it's the lack
Maybe it's the music, maybe it's the crack
Maybe it's the hairdos, maybe it's the TV
Maybe it's the cigarettes, maybe it's the family
Maybe it's the fast food, maybe it's the news
Maybe it's divorce, maybe it's abuse
Maybe it's the lawyers, maybe it's the prisons
Maybe it's the Senators, maybe it's the system
Maybe it's the fathers, maybe it's the sons
Maybe it's the sisters, maybe it's the moms
Maybe it's the radio, maybe it's road rage
Maybe El Nino, or UV rays
Maybe it's the army, maybe it's the liquor
Maybe it's the papers, maybe the militia
Maybe it's the athletes, maybe it's the ads
Maybe it's the sports fans, maybe it's a fad
Maybe it's the magazines, maybe it's the internet
Maybe it's the lottery, maybe it's the immigrants
Maybe it's taxes, big business
Maybe it's the KKK and the skinheads
Maybe it's the communists, maybe it's the Catholics
Maybe it's the hippies, maybe it's the addicts
Maybe it's the art, maybe it's the sex
Maybe it's the homeless, maybe it's the banks
Maybe it's the clearcut, maybe it's the ozone
Maybe it's the chemicals, maybe it's the car phones
Maybe it's the fertilizer, maybe it's the nose rings
Maybe it's the end, but I know one thing.
If it were up to me, I'd take away the guns.
Se Dependesse de Mim
Talvez sejam os filmes, talvez sejam os livros
Talvez sejam as balas, talvez sejam os verdadeiros bandidos
Talvez sejam as drogas, talvez sejam os pais
Talvez sejam as cores que todo mundo tá usando
Talvez seja o Presidente, talvez seja o último
Talvez seja o anterior, o que ele fez
Talvez sejam os colégios, talvez sejam os professores
Talvez sejam as crianças tatuadas nas arquibancadas
Talvez seja a Bíblia, talvez seja a falta
Talvez seja a música, talvez seja o crack
Talvez sejam os penteados, talvez seja a TV
Talvez sejam os cigarros, talvez seja a família
Talvez seja a comida rápida, talvez seja a notícia
Talvez seja o divórcio, talvez seja o abuso
Talvez sejam os advogados, talvez sejam as prisões
Talvez sejam os Senadores, talvez seja o sistema
Talvez sejam os pais, talvez sejam os filhos
Talvez sejam as irmãs, talvez sejam as mães
Talvez seja o rádio, talvez seja a raiva no trânsito
Talvez seja El Niño, ou os raios UV
Talvez seja o exército, talvez seja a bebida
Talvez sejam os jornais, talvez a milícia
Talvez sejam os atletas, talvez sejam os anúncios
Talvez sejam os torcedores, talvez seja uma moda
Talvez sejam as revistas, talvez seja a internet
Talvez seja a loteria, talvez sejam os imigrantes
Talvez sejam os impostos, grandes empresas
Talvez seja o KKK e os skinheads
Talvez sejam os comunistas, talvez sejam os católicos
Talvez sejam os hippies, talvez sejam os viciados
Talvez seja a arte, talvez seja o sexo
Talvez sejam os sem-teto, talvez sejam os bancos
Talvez seja o desmatamento, talvez seja a camada de ozônio
Talvez sejam os químicos, talvez sejam os celulares
Talvez sejam os fertilizantes, talvez sejam os piercings no nariz
Talvez seja o fim, mas eu sei de uma coisa.
Se dependesse de mim, eu tiraria as armas.
