day SIXTY FIVE

Ballad of the Dark Knight   (Put Out The Fire)

The movie theater was your second home

Now that memory is tainted through the smoke

When the Joker creates another Colorado storm

The Dark Knight rises on a Jersey Wave

All his rifles and machine guns thrown away

And Gotham cries for justice

What a bloody plague

Put out the Fire

Put out the Fire

Put out the Fire Before It's Too Late

Put out the Fire 

Put out the Fire 

Put out the Fire Before It's Too Late 

When the memory of a massacre fades away

And the lobbyists fight for the NRA

More victims to be claimed in the good ol’ USA.

How many more victims will it take

For a federal ban to see the light of day

And assault weapons rust in their dirty grave

Chorus

I’m not sayin’ guns are solely to blame

You can hate me for my politics and thats okay 

But I’m just like you when sickness causes so much pain

Chorus

- Ben Burns
