Bullet and a Target

Lyrics

Say Mrs. Dali Lamas
 Another sister's shootin' heroin tomorrow
 'S amputees in Freetown
 Sierra Leone's
 The church wasn't honest
 The state put the youth in a harness
 Creatin' hostility among us
 The teacher said no college
 Still the kid's gotta get a check with a couple commas
 People wanna bomb us
 More people gotta scatter and run from us
 You can blame it on Zeus and Apollo and Adonis
 But what you've done here
 Is put yourself between a bullet and a target
 And it won't be long before
 You're pulling yourself away
 What you've done here
 Is put yourself between a bullet and a target
 And it won't be long before
 You're pulling yourself away
 I've been knowin' her for years
 I've been seeing her for years
 She got dark, dark wavy hair
 With a voice that she just don't care
 She got a skirt with a halter top
 She's got a dad who never gave a fuck
 She drink a beer with a malted shot
 She got knocked up in a pickup truck
 But she got engaged when she was nineteen
 To this dude who was acting insane
 Had a .45 that he always cleaned
 She said one day, one day one too many days
 Now she ducked and she ran away
 Never to be heard from, never to be seen
 I check the cover of a magazine
 I'm just wondering how, just wondering how
 But what you've done here
 Is put yourself between a bullet and a target
 And it won't be long before
 You're pulling yourself away
 But what you've done here
 Is put yourself between a bullet and a target
 And it won't be long before
 You're pulling yourself away
 What you've done here
 Is put yourself between a bullet and a target
 And it won't be long before
 You're pulling yourself away
 What you've done here
 Is put yourself between a bullet and a target
 And it won't be long before
 You're pulling yourself away
 A bullet and a target
 A bullet and a target
 A bullet and a target
 A bullet and a target
