I've got a gun and a pocket full of bullets
I'm gonna shoot you down
You've got a gun and a pocket full of bullets
You've gonna shoot me down
And then we'll both be too dead
To make love in the living room
And then we'll both be too dead
To have fun making the baby boom
I've got a gun and a pocket full of bullets
I'm gonna shoot you down
You've got a gun and a pocket full of bullets
You've gonna shoot me down
And then we'll both be too dead
To see freedom coming over the mountain
And then we'll both be too dead
To kiss and make up at our homecoming
Life's not elegant, Mum
Whatever your calling is
Life's not elegant, Mum
Whatever you're calling it
I'm changing the face of warfare
And I'm changing the face of warfare
I've got a gun and a pocket full of bullets
And you've got a gun and a pocket full of bullets
And I'm gonna shoot you down
And you've gonna shoot me down
You're getting sleepy now
Your eyes they close no matter
How hard you try to overpower my powers
You're getting sleepy now
Your eyes they close no matter
How hard you try to overpower my powers
