Theme: Guns: Gorillaz "Kids With Guns"




"Kids With Guns" (Albarn, Hewlett, et all., 2006) is obviously about kids...with guns. I cannot decide on which interpretation of this song fits better: A. The amount of exposure kids have to guns and violence, i.e. on the news, video games, songs, etc, and how we believe that exposure affects them, or B. Young 'kids' in the army who are handed guns and asked to use them.

Either way, it's "turning us into monsters."

Kids with guns
Kids with guns
Taking over
But it won't be long
They're mesmerized
Skeletons
Kids with guns
Kids with guns
Easy does it, easy does it, they got something to say no to
