Big Guns
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
She was a ballerina on a subway train
Stiletto heels and a candy cane
Looked like a number on a station wall
Hot on the tail of a social call
I wet my lips I thought I had it made
Like Valentino with a hand grenade
I made my move with my libido on
She circled once and then she dropped the bomb
She got the big guns, pointed at my heart
Bang bang shooting like a firing squad
Big guns, She blew me away
And I went down in flames
I met a sidewalk preacher on a roller-skate
He said he had the key to heaven's gate
I'll wait for the movie 'cause I been there before
And learned: Like is a battle and love is war
She got the big guns, pointed at my heart
Bang bang shooting like a firing squad
Big guns, Took me by surprise
She got my lovin' reachin' for the sky
She got the big guns, pointed at my heart
Bang bang shooting like a firing squad
Big guns, She blew me away
And I went down in flames
I'm doing time as a back seat Romeo
Play solitaire with my hands in the air
Another night and no bullets to spare
She got the big guns, Pointed at my heart
Bang bang shooting like a firing squad
Big guns, she blew me away and I went down, down, down in flames
Big guns, (big guns), (big guns)
Big guns, big guns She really really got the big guns
She shot me, and I went down in flames
