Lyrics Gunman - Adrian Belew

Gunman

Gunman, my sort of star, we put you there
You’re all of us now, you’re all over town
On wrappers and cans, you’re bigger than life
You’re braver than dad
You’re a gunman, holding your own
You’re a gunman, never alone
Gunman, leader of packs, shadow of death
Killer in chic, never betrayed, friend of our kids
You’re a gunman, holding your own
You’re a gunman, never alone
Gunman, trader in arms
The kids on the streets are buying your charms
Gunman, my sort of star
We’re bleeding for you, we put you there
What would you give, you’re all of us now
We’re burning for you
You’re all over town, gunman
You’re on wrappers and cans
You’re bigger than life and we’re dying for you
And you’re braver than dad, gunman
You’re woman are dogs
But they’re braver than you
We’re bleeding for you
What would you give?
We’re burning for you, gunman
We invented you
Now we’ve got to live with you
You’re more solid than a rock
A rock of cocaine or crack or ice or death
Like a rock of death
Like a gravestone
Gunman
