Let There Be Guns Lyrics

One, two, three, four...

Woudn't it be great if everybody had a gun
Woudn't it be great if everybody had a gun
There'd be no more crime, 'cause everybody'd have a gun!
Woudn't it be great if everybody had a gun

Woudn't it be great if everybody had a gun
Woudn't it be great if everybody had a gun
We wouldn't need the police no more, 'cause everybody'd have a gun!
(Yeah!)
Woudn't it be great if everybody had a gun

Woudn't it be great if everybody had a gun (had a gun)
Woudn't it be great if everybody had a gun (had a gun)
Nobody'd ever get shot, 'cause everybody'd have a gun! (Makes sense!)
Woudn't it be great if everybody had a gun

We could go out and shoot things
We could go out and shoot things
We could go out and shoot things
We could go out and shoot things
We could go out and shoot things
We could go out and shoot things
We'd all feel safe, 'cause everybody'd have a gun!

Woudn't it be great if everybody had a gun (had a gun)
Woudn't it be great if everybody had a gun (had a gun)
Everyone'd be equal, 'cause everybody'd have a gun!
Not me, I got me a rifle!
Well hang on, if you got yourself a rifle then I wanna get me a semi-automatic
Weapon!
You get a semi-automatic weapon and I'm gonna want an automatic weapon!
You get yourself an automatic weapon, I'm gonna get a super-automatic weapon!
Well if you get a super-automatic weapon, then I'm gonna get a
Super-duper-automatic weapon with a CD-ROM drive!
If you get yourself one of those I'm gonna get a
Super-duper-automatic weapon with a CD-ROM drive, and a big old hard
Drive, and a big guitar amp so I can play BTOs...
(rants on while the rest of the Worms sing)

Woudn't it be great if everybody had the weapon of their choice
Woudn't it be great if everybody had the weapon of their choice
Woudn't it be great if everybody had a wepon of theri choice

(Still ranting.)
I'll go so fast I'll be able to chase you from here to Saigon, and
Then I'll shoot like little Nerf rockets at you and poke you in the
Eye 'cause it'll have automatic like finger-poking in the eye
Things and I'll get myself another guitar amp...

(faded)
One, two, three, four...

Woudn't it be great if everybody had a gun
Woudn't it be great if everybody had a gun
There'd be no more crime, 'cause everybody'd have a gun!
Woudn't it be great if everybody had a gun

Canada's Secret Weapon #1.

The Arrogant Worms are a Canadian musical comedy trio that parodies many musical genres. They are well known for their humorous on-stage banter in addition to their music.

The Worms came together in 1991 to do a few spots on campus radio station CFRC in Kingston, Ontario, and quickly moved to doing spots on the CBC Radio One. Since 1992, the troupe has released 11 albums on their own label and one compilation album under Oglio Records. Their most recent album, Torpid, was released in late 2008. The Worms are currently touring Canada in support of their recent album.

Each album consists mostly of independent tracks paying homage, always humourosly, to different genres and topics. Two exceptions are the 1997 Christmas Turkey, dedicated to songs about Christmas, and the 2003 Semi-Conducted, which is a collection of their songs performed live with the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra.

Rock, folk, ballads, country, Celtic folk, and children's music all have come under their satirical guns.

When not spoofing a particular style of music, the Worms' material pokes fun at various aspects of daily life in Canada with songs like "Canada's Really Big", "The Last Saskatchewan Pirate", "Me Like Hockey", "Rocks and Trees", and "Proud to Be Canadian".

The Arrogant Worms currently consist of:

Chris Patterson - Bass guitar and vocals
Mike McCormick - Guitar and vocals
Trevor Strong - Vocals and "things"

John Whytock - left after C'est Cheese
Steve Wood - left after The Arrogant Worms
