What a wonder is a gun!
What a versatile invention!
First of all, when you've a gun --
Everybody pays attention.

When you think what must be done.
Think of all it can do:
Remove a scoundrel,
Unite a party,
Preserve the Union,
Promote the sales of my book,
Insure my future,
My niche in history,
And then the world will see
That I am not a man to overlook!
