Shot My Lover In The Head Lyrics - The Pierces

Couplet 1: 

I shot my lover in the head 

Didn't kill him, but he's almost dead 

Now he's bleeding on the bedroom floor, 

Got the neighbors knocking at the door. 

They said, "did you hear a gun fire?'' 

Said, "no", but they know I'm a liar. 

They said they're calling 911 

So I said, gotta hide my gun 

Chorus: 

Why did I do it? Why'd I go and do it? Oh, why did I do it? Why'd I go and do it? (x2) 

If I turn myself in could I claim it was in self-defense? I don't think so 

He had it coming with all of his running around 

Couplet 2: 

I shot my lover in the head 

Found him with another woman in bed 

You should've seen the look on his face 

I took the gun from the hiding place 

I let her go - she was a disaster 

After all, it was him I was after 

He fell on his hands and knees 

Begged I'm sorry, pretty, pretty please 

[Chorus x2] 

Should I flee the country and be a refugee 

In Turkey, or Mexico? 

He had it coming with all of his running around 

[Couplet 1] 

I shot my lover in the head 

Didn't kill him, but he's almost dead 

Now he's bleeding on the bedroom floor, 

Got the neighbors knocking at the door. 

They said, "did you hear a gun fire?'' 

Said, "no", but they know I'm a liar. 

They said they're calling 911 

So I said, gotta hide my gun 

[Chorus x4] 

Why did I do it? Why'd I go and do it? Oh, why did I do it? Why'd I go and do it? 

Cause he had it coming with all of his running around
