Gunman Lyrics - Adrian Belew

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 

Your 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
