Big Guns
She was a ballerina on a subway trainStiletto heels and a candy caneLooked like a number on a station wallHot on the tail of a social call
I wet my lips I thought I had it madeLike valentino with a hand grenadeI made my move with my libido onShe circled once and then she dropped the bomb
She got the big gunsPointed at my heartBang bang shooting like a firing squadBig gunsBlew me awayAnd I went down in flames
I met a sidewalk preacher on a roller skateHe said he had the key to heaven's gate"Wait for the movie 'cause I been there before"And learned: Like is a battle and love is war
She got the big gunsPointed at my heartBang bang shooting like a firing squadBig gunsTook me by surpriseShe got my lovin' reachin' for the sky
She got the big gunsPointed at my heartBang bang shooting like a firing squadBig gunsBlew me awayAnd I went down in flames
I'm doing time as a back seat romeoPlay solitaire with my hands in the airAnother night and no bullets to spare
She got the big gunsPointed at my heartBang bang shooting like a firing squadBig gunsShe blew me awayAnd I went down, down, down in flames
Big guns (big guns)Big guns,
Big guns, big gunsShe really, really got the big gunsShe shot me down in flames
