You Won't - Bombshell

Bombshell

when I was sleeping in the streets all black and blue
never thought that it would be so easy to
buy a car and pay the rent
with the blood of innocents
but the old man knew exactly what to do
daddy built a bombshell for me

when I was spinning in a circle down a well
bit the bullet spit the bit and rang the bell
when the old attorney came, shook his hand and signed my name
saw another good intention gone to hell

daddy built a bombshell for me

and I loosed it on the land
with my telephone in hand
pushed a button and I heard a baby cry
and her mother said you’re mean
you’re selfish and you’re green
you’ll be living in a dream until you die

all the cannon fodder caught behind the screen
all the sons and daughters blown to smithereens
every melody I sing like a jester to a king
thanks to guns and guts and gore and gasoline

daddy built a bombshell for me
