Gunman Songtext
von Adrian Belew

Gunman, my sort of star
They 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 death
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
Gunman
Trader in arms
For kids on the street


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 our town
Gunman, you′re on wrappers and cans
You're bigger than life
But we're dying for you
And you′re braver than dad
Gunman, your women are dogs
But they′re braver than you
We're bleeding for you
What will you be?
We′re burning for you
Gunman
We invented you
Now we've gotta live with you
You′re more solid than a rock
A rock of cocaine
Or crack, or ice, or death
Like the rock of death
Like a gravestone
Gunman
