Why so close
Big boys in black hats
Cowboys with white guns
White guns shoot blue white
Blue white baptism
No buffaloes
No Indians
No more buffaloes
Red sky is falling
Blue blood no stalling
White heat will strip you
No time to run far
Ivan’s got a wall of lead ‘round his house
Nobody can get in or out
Running out of food for ammunition
Frightened of the darkness
Sending out scouts
Why stand the fire so close
Why stand the fire so close
Why stand the fire so close
Why... so close
So close
Wayne’s got a wall that’s much more subtle
Wore headphones since he was born
Watches Ivan through dark glasses
Hands on his gun waiting for the storm
One false move and we all fall down
No futile games, no such fun
Here’s your ticket to our party
That’s what you get for playing with a gun
Six-guns so close
So close
Ivan’s got a wall of lead ‘round his house
Nobody can get in or out
Running out of food for ammunition
Frightened of the darkness
Sending out scouts
Wayne’s got a wall that’s much more subtle
Wore headphones since he was born
Watches Ivan through dark glasses
Hands on his gun waiting for the storm
Why stand the fire so close
Why stand the fire so close
Why stand the fire so close
Why...
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
