Them Crooked Vultures Lyrics

"Gunman" lyrics


Gunman, bloodshot eyes
Gunman, grain of sand
Sisters, could not sleep
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 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 it
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, you 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 and nail
If you catch a tiger by the tail
Don't fail

I wanna go blind
Wanna stare at the sun
De-evolution...
