Gunman
(专辑: Them Crooked Vultures - 2009)
Gunman, Bloodshot eyes. Gunman, Grain of sand. Sisters, Could not speak. Father, Is a
holy ghost. And there's lions In a
cage. It don't matter, don't try to explain, You're just another dog to be trained, Choke chained. You're gonna end up under tooth and nail. If you catch a
tiger by the
tail, Don't fail. Brother, Does not dream Anymore. Sisters, Could not sleep. Transformation incomplete, Mercy killing, those counting sheep. I'm a
trigger, quick to fire, Punctuate betwixt the
eyes And you're clever... It ain't gonna help you. Violence is just an incomplete thought, Coming to a
complete stop, Stop. You're so clever you'll tear us apart, Then masquerade it as art. Not smart. If you can help anyone, help yourself, That's unless you hate yourself, Then don't help. Angry ants are crawling, Makes you wanna scream. Lions clawing, Building up steam. Flesh and bone have no persuasion, This is the
path to my destination. Gunman, Where you been? You're my Hero, Savior, Psycho, Slayer. Follow the
leader yet lead 'em the
same. Slugs punctuate the
refrain, Come again? It don't matter, don't try to explain. You're just a
dog to be trained, Choke chained. You gonna end up under tooth & nail. If you catch a
tiger by the
tail, Don't fail. I
wanna go blind, wanna stare at the
sun. De-evolution.
