Billy's Got a Gun lyrics

Billy's got a gun, he's on the run

Confusion in his mind, the blind leads the blind

Yeah, Billy's got a gun, he's going to shoot you down

He's got evil in his eyes, got a reason to despise

There's danger in the air

Can you feel it in the air?

(There's danger in the air)

Danger

(Such a strange emotion)

Can you feel it in the air?

(Oh, yeah)

Oh, he was locked inside a room without a door

His innocence he suffered for, in a world of black and white

They were wrong and he was right

Just looking for a clue, it's a nightmare come true

He's going underground to track that danger down

Oh, Billy, and why you got that gun?

Can you feel it in the air?

(There's danger in the air)

Danger

(Such a strange emotion)

Can you feel it in the air?

(Oh, yeah)

Never give him an even break

Getting caught is the chance you take

It could be your last mistake

(You could be so hopeless)

As a bird with a broken wing

Like a sheep in a lions den

Going to fall but you won't know when

(He's going to get you)

You hear footsteps in the night, see shadows on the wall

And the ghostly sound of silence, as the mist begins to fall

Then a scream rang out like thunder but the lightning was too late

As the rain came down on the crimson ground was the hand of fate

And a crowd of people gathered around but Billy couldn't wait

Can you feel it in the air?

(There's danger in the air)

Danger

(Such a strange emotion)

Can you feel it in the air?

(Oh, yeah)

(Aah, you better run) Never give him an even break

(Better run) Getting caught is the chance you take

(You better run) It could be your last mistake

(Yeah, Billy's got a gun)

As a bird with a broken wing (Oh, Billy)

As a sheep in the lions den (Oh, Billy)

Going to fall but you won't know when

(Yeah, the heat is on, he's going to get you)

Bang, bang
