Here's To The Man Lyrics
Here's to the man, created the gun
If you could see, what it has done
Would you redo, what you have done
and not create, our friend the gun?
Here's to the man, uses the gun.
Kills all kinds of creatures, just for fun.
He's on the hunt, we're on the run.
Is there remorse, when the killing is done?
"Great and sunny today" said the man on the airwaves,
Great and sunny
The epitome of a California spring day
Johnny and Butch, two young boys
Well aware of the advantages of a hot California spring day
The game today, cops and robbers
Well I'll get my daddy's gun
He keeps it on the shelf next to the dirty picture books
I've seen it many times, I know,
He doesn't know that I know but I do know
Cause I'm a good climber, I like to climb
Just watch me go and there I go
See
Let's Play
Bang Bang!
Johnny!
Here's to the man, who holsters the gun
For it has taken, his only son
His days are done
Chances are he is not
The only one
If you could see, what it has done
Would you redo, what you have done
and not create, our friend the gun?
Kills all kinds of creatures, just for fun.
He's on the hunt, we're on the run.
Is there remorse, when the killing is done?
Great and sunny
The epitome of a California spring day
Johnny and Butch, two young boys
Well aware of the advantages of a hot California spring day
The game today, cops and robbers
He keeps it on the shelf next to the dirty picture books
I've seen it many times, I know,
He doesn't know that I know but I do know
Cause I'm a good climber, I like to climb
Just watch me go and there I go
See
Let's Play
Bang Bang!
Johnny!
For it has taken, his only son
His days are done
Chances are he is not
The only one

The good and bad of the gun, and unfortunately Johnny in the story isn't the only child to suffer this fate
I think no matter how much I practice and play and work on my ability to play bass, I will never be able to play this song...
