Mighty Mighty Bosstones - Guns and the Young lyrics

(Dicky Barrett/Nate Albert)

Police have no suspects yet,

Both women have been shot twice in the head

Gang violence in Boston

No parent has planned that their children would leave them on this earth through violence

Arrrgghhh

Hey whats the big idea? Why don't you look where you're

Police are on full alert

357 magnum 9 millimeter handgun A-K 47 and an UZI sub machine gun[4x]

you see it on TV, you know it looks cool

all these actors going around killing thousands of people

in two or three minutes, it builds up in your head and you say,

"yo I can do that" just stand facing a wall

your enemies are all around you

you can feel the tension, right behind you

357 magnum 9 millimeter hangun A-K 47 and an UZI sub machine gun

everybody's trying to take Take!

take over my spot, people just trying to take Take!

take what I got see if I'm strapped, they can't get to me

everybody's afraid of each other

you make enemies so easily just hangin' on the corner

Gang violence in Boston[4x] Nathan!

chains snatched a couple of times, shoes off your feet

feel like you've got to arm yourself to protect yourself

chains snatched a couple of times, shoes off your feet

feel like you've got to arm yourself to protect yourself

help [8x]

what do you do if someone's packin'?

what the hell can one man do?

what do you do if he's crackin'?

hope he can't shoot straight?

357 magnum 9mm handgun A-K 47 and an UZI sub machine gun
