Lyrics:
[Chorus]
Another bang bang shoot 'em up movie
Pride and vengeance all around
Another bang bang shoot emupmovie
Meant to blowmy mind
Make my heart pound
Bridges andtempers on fire
Please turn it off Im tired
Of Bang bang bang shoot 'em up movies
[Verse 1]
Have you ever had a gun pointed directly at you
And there isnt any doubt its loaded and ready to go
Well I have twice and I dont recall any heroes on the scene
Just adrenaline and fear and a few souls who have unfortunately seen
[Chorus]
A lot of bang bang shoot 'em up movies
People putting people in the ground
Bang bang shoot 'em up movies
Meant to turn my head
Make my heart pound
Fiction and commerce conspire
Please turn it off Im tired
Of bang bang bang shoot 'em up movies
[Verse 2]
I live in the country because I love peace and quiet
But all of my neighbors have closets full of machine guns
And every Sunday theyre out there, pretending to be Rambo
And Im in here pretending like Sunday is still sacred
[Bridge]
Conceal and carry your fear
Dont need no weapons here
Ive had all I can stand
Of the bloodthirsty leading man
[Verse 3]
If you think there isnt any connection between
All the violence you see in real life and whats on the screen
Well it seems painfully clear to me
That youre living in a fantasy
[Chorus]
Another bang bang shoot 'em up movie
Living room like a battle ground
A bang bang shoot 'em up movie
Meant to push the envelope
Make me say 'wow'
If I never hear gunfire again Ill be fine
So please turn it off Im tired
Of bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang
Bang bang bang
