NO. Don't Shoot

(album: The Flamingo Trigger - 2005)

He said breathe in
Love is good to you, to you
I can't say the same for me
SMILE!
because love is good to you, to you

I guess I'm not the only one
Q-tip and holster guns
Sesamy seeds find your gun and I'll accuse you
because I've been so far
and I've been so wide
now I'm seeing all these things I never knew exist

Since you, since you, since you
since you, since you, since you
Since you been gone
Since you been good
Since you been here
NO don't shoot
NO don't shoot
NO don't shoot

Love is good to you, to you
I Can't say the same for me
SMILE!
love is good to you, to you

I guess I'm not the only one
Q-tip and holster guns
Sesamy seeds find your gun and I'll accuse you
because I've been so far
and I've been so wide
now I'm seeing all these things I never knew exist

Since you, since you, since you
since you, since you, since you
Since you been gone
Since you been good
Since you been here
NO don't shoot
NO don't shoot
NO don't shoot

I was in the bathroom the other day at school
When a bar of soap under the sink caught my eye.
I picked it up and the name "Lisa" was carved in it.
Nine years later I watched my only daughter
walk beautifully down the aisle and she turns to me
and says the six words I'll remember
for the rest of my life:

EEE OOH AAH
BIGGITY BIGGITY BOO

I'm not a crook
I'm not a crook
I'm not a crook and I swear it

I'm not a crook
I'm not a crook
I'm not a crook and I swear it

Since you, since you, since you
since you, since you, since you
Since you been gone
Since you been good
Since you been here
NO don't shoot
NO don't shoot
NO don't shoot

Since you, since you, since you
since you, since you, since you
Since you been gone
Since you been good
Since you been here
Don't shoot
Don't shoot
Don't shoot
Don't shoot
