Fish In A Gun Barrel

NOFX

Transposer:

[Intro] [Verse] Does anyone know how loaded he was When he unloaded his gun? Does anyone know how loaded he was When the slaughter had begun? [Bridge] Does anyone know how crazy he was? Does anyone think he did it because He thought humans were in season? His brain had a lesion? Is it worse if he didn’t have any reason? [Verse] Does anyone know what number of pints He was planning to spill? Does anyone think he may have just been prescribed The wrong happy pill? [Bridge] Which god told him to kill all the infidels? The intellectuals the homosexuals Even the red-nexuals Anything can start making sense When it’s imprinted out of context [Verse] Does anyone know what made him decide To unload his first round? Do you think he cared what race or faith For the victims he left for dead on the ground? [Bridge] Does anyone know how Jewish he was? Does anyone know how Buddish he was? Does anyone know how if he’s a Christian? Had a pot to piss in? Did he consider it a sin? [Instrumental] [Verse] Did anyone go to church for the dead And ask to kneel and pray? How can you believe in a God And still carry a card of the NRA? [Bridge] I thought religion is supposed to instill A notion that it’s not right to kill It must be a bitter pill To admit that you’re all mentally ill [Break] Why do we have a harder time When there’s no enemy to blame? It doesn’t matter how many were killed The debate is the same [Bridge] Is it alright to hunt or judge you for fun? Is it protection we need from the gun? The blame is always placed on someone It’s always how the story is spun [Outro] Only a lunatic Would sell a lunatic a gun

Cette chanson interroge la folie et la violence derrière les actes de meurtre, s'interrogeant sur l'état d'esprit de ceux qui passent à l'acte. Elle soulève des questions sur les raisons qui pourraient pousser un individu à tuer, qu'il s'agisse de blessures psychologiques, de croyances déformées ou d'influences extérieures. Les références à la religion et à la possession d'armes mettent en lumière l'hypocrisie de certaines attitudes, en se demandant comment on peut défendre la vie tout en soutenant la culture des armes. Le contexte est crucial, surtout dans une société où la violence armée est un sujet récurrent. L'écriture cherche à éveiller les consciences sur ces questions troublantes et soulève un débat autour de la responsabilité individuelle et collective face à de tels actes. La chanson interpelle, en mettant en avant des contradictions que l'on peut observer dans le discours public sur la violence et la foi.
