The Big Guns |
Well, you praise him, then you thank him |
Till you reach the by-and-by |
And I’ve won hundreds at the track |
But I’m not bettin' on the afterlife |
Then you kiss his lips |
He forgives you for it |
He forgives you for all you’ve done |
But not me |
I’m still angry |
What have I done? |
Why am I always missing with |
The big guns? |
First, I’ll build a sword |
Get some words to explain |
It’s a plan, brother, at least |
And I’ll pretend that everybody here wants peace |
Have mercy, have mercy, have mercy on me |
'Cause we’re tired and lonely and we’re bloody |
What have we done? |
Why are we still runnin' |
From our own failing bodies? |
The big guns |
The big guns |
Sing mercy, sing mercy, sing mercy on me |
Let’s pretend that everybody here wants peace |
What have we done? |
Why are we still chasing our own tails and running |
From the big guns? |
The big guns |
The big guns |
