Shotgun Songtext
von Dub FX

I was walking down the road and heard a rich man say
"I′m a-living on the streets and I'm a-dying today
I′m a-sleeping all alone inside this alleyway
Put a bullet in my heart so I can fly away"

And so I load up my shotgun
I heard him call out to someone
I said I load up my shotgun
I heard him cry out to someone

See, he was finishing his duties as a wise old man
He was trying to finalize his own retirement plan
He looked up to the sky and saw a whole new land
I could hear his heart a-beating like a marching band

That's when I load up a shotgun
I heard him call out to someone
I said I load up a shotgun
I heard him cry out to someone


With his finger on the trigger, I was in a daze
I looked around and didn't recognize this place
A shadow tapped me on the back and called my name
I looked around and heard a sound that had a face

Then he fired that shotgun
And so I called out to someone
I said he fired that shotgun
And so I cried out to someone

So now I′m lifting off the ground and drifting into the stars
I′m bursting through the colors, heading up to the gods
They show me what I truly am and all my facades
They say go back and hold the ones you love

I needed to wake up and see the game
I ignored the signs and now I feel the pain
I got no one to listen if I do complain
So I talk to myself until I go insane
The gods never listen 'cause I act profane
I got no one except myself to blame
So I sleep all alone in my own disdain
Going ′round and 'round until I′m back again
