God Is a Bullet Songtext

von Concrete Blonde

There's a green plaid jacket on the back of the chair
It's like a moment frozen forever there
Mom and dad had a lot of big plans for their little man
So proud

Mamma's gone crazy cuz her baby's cut down
By some teenage conscience wore out of bounds
It was the wrong place wrong time wrong end of a gun
Sad

Shoot
Shoot straight
Shoot
From the hip now
Gone forever in a trigger slip
Well it could have been it could have been your brother

Shoot
Shoot straight
Shoot
Shoot to kill yeah
Blame each other blame yourself
You know God is a bullet have mercy on us everyone

They're gonna call me sir they'll all stop picking on me
I'm a high school grad I'm over five foot three
I'll get a badge and a gun and I'll join the PD
They'll see

You didn't have to use the gun they put in his hand
But when the guy came at him well he panicked and ran
And it's thirty long years before they give him another chance
And it's sad, sad.

Shoot
From the hip
Shoot
It's all gone in a trigger slip
It could have been it could have been your mother

Shoot
Shoot straight
Shoot
Shoot to kill yeah
Blame each other blame yourself
You know that God is a bullet have mercy on us everyone

Solo

Shoot
Shoot straight
Shoot
From the hip
Gone forever in a trigger slip
It could have been it could have been your mother

Shoot
John Lennon
Shoot
Doctor King
Hardly know them, all for goddamn nothing
God is a bullet have mercy on us everyone

God is a bullet have mercy on us everyone
