about

He's Got a Gun

lyrics

So you know you gotta go, cloak ‘n’ dagger it all
Or I might just plot your downfall
Friend or foe, fast or slow, you gotta know
If your land’s gonna be threatened by deed poll
Gotta feelin’ you’re a Fenian
Who likes to shoot bow and arrow to increase his sorrow
But I know you gotta go, cloak ‘n’ dagger it all
Or I might just plot your downfall
I’ve got Good Medicine
To glue your porcelain
And for me there’s penicillin
To dull the ache I’ve been feelin’

My Little Red Chief
Do you want me for me?
Or do you need a phantom as clear as the sea?
He’s gotta gun and he dunno how to use it
Oh Little Red Chief
All you can see
On all sides enemies
Approaching your tipi

He’s gotta gun and he dunno how to use it
He’s gotta gun and he dunno to do with it
Heaven knows how you blow on the fire

It will kill right to the nooks and crannies of your desire
Singin’ proud, hollowed out, make your point
An echo hits the spirit when least expected
Gotta feelin’ you’re a Fenian
Who likes to shoot bow and arrow to increase his sorrow
But I know you gotta go, show your teeth
Or I might just enfold you up in my blanket
Well I’ve got Good Medicine
To glue your porcelain
And for me there’s swaddlin’
To keep in the blood I’ve been spillin’

Little Red Chief
Do you even see me?
Or do you need an exit as big as the sea?
He’s got a gun and he dunno how to use it
So Little Red Chief
Should I issue smoke rings?
To get your attention
A hopeless plea

He’s gotta gun and he dunno how to use it
He’s gotta gun and he dunno to do with it
He’s gotta bone and he beats his chest with it
He’s gotta gun and he dunno to do with it

Oh how lonesome you look
Oh how lonesome you seem
Don’t you wanna come outside with me
Even just for one second

Little Red Chief you gotta listen now
You gotta gun and you got to use it
No matter what they say you could fight another day
Look at the bone and you got to use it
He gotta gun and he dunno to do with it
Beats his chest with it
You gotta gun and you dunno to do with it
