"The Anatomy of a School Shooting" is a song by American rapper Ill Bill, which was released on April 16, 2004. It was the first and only single from his debut album, What's Wrong with Bill?, released the following month.

The song takes the perspective of the Columbine High School Massacre, or more specifically Eric Harris with his friend Dylan Klebold, shooting students and teachers at Columbine High School for years of bullying.

The song discusses school bullying:

"Why do I have to be one that the cool kids just to walk by, without being tripped, thrown down on the ground and kicked? Insulting me for no reason. I was treated like shit! The teachers let it happen. I've even seen some of them teachers laughing. thats why I had a smile on my face when I started blasting.I was the nicest person in the world. Y'all were dicks!"

The song also mentions a second school massacre; The Jonesboro massacre which took place more than a year prior to the Columbine Massacre with the line 'We've been planning this before the kids from Jonesboro did it'.
