• Mummy...Johnny brought a gun to school
    He told his friends that it was cool
    And when he pulled the trigger back
    It shot with a great crack
    Mummy I was a good girl
    I did what I was told
    I went to school, I got straight A's, I even got the gold
    But mummy when I went to school that day, I never said goodbye
    I'm sorry mummy I had to go, but mommy please don't cry
    When Johnny shot the gun he hit me and another
    And all because he got the gun from his older brother
    Mummy please tell daddy that I love him very much
    And please tell Chris, my boyfriend, that it wasn't just a crush
    And tell my little sister that she is the only one now
    And tell my dear sweet grandmother that I'll be waiting for her now
    And tell my wonderful friends that they were always the best
    Mummy I'm not the first I'm no better than the rest
    Mummy tell my teachers I won't show up for class
    And never to forget this and please don't let this pass
    Mummy why'd it have to be me no one deserves this
    Mummy warn the others, mummy I left without a kiss
    And mummy tell the doctors I know they really did try
    I think I even saw a doctor trying not to cry
    Mummy I'm slowly dying with a bullet in my chest
    But mummy please remember I'm in heaven with the rest
    Mummy I ran as fast as I could when I heard that crack
    Mummy listen to me if you would
    I wanted to go to college
    I wanted to try things that were new
    I guess I'm not going with daddy
    On that trip to the new zoo
    I wanted to get married
    I wanted to have a kid
    I wanted to be an actress
    Mummy I wanted to live
    But mummy I must go now
    The time is getting late
    Mummy tell my Chris
    I'm sorry but I had to cancel the date
    I love you mummy I always have
    I know you know it's true
    Mummy all I wanted to say is "mummy I love you"
    In memory of the Columbian students that were lost
    Please if you would
    Pass this around
    I'd be happy if you could
    Don't smash this on the ground
    If you pass this on
    Maybe people will cry
    Just keep this in heart
    For the people that didn't get to say "goodbye"
