Lyrics:
I'm a runaway missile, you're my guiding light
oh honey, you can make me detonate
I'm the copulation of the new salvation
I am heroin an cyanide
I'm a thorn in the side of your alibi
I'm a technicolor nightmare ride
I'm a repossession of a blind obsession
I'm a chainsaw stuck in overdrive
let's start a fire
let's walk the wire
hell, yeah
I'm a gun, I'm second to none
I'm a gun, I'm second to none
I'm a gun
I'm a torture chamber, I'm the perfect stranger
I'm the meltdown at the nuclear plant
I'm a .357 on my way to heaven
I'm, a freight train running out of track
let's start a fire
let's walk the wire
hell, yeah
I'm a gun, I'm second to none
I'm a gun, I'm second to none
I'm a gun
I'm a gun, I'm second to none
I'm a gun, I'm second to none
I'm a gun
I ain't afraid of dying
I ain't got spit to lose
I'm gonna make the headlines
I'm gonna make the late night news
wop-bop-a-loo-bop, baby, don't you step on my blue suede shoes
(solo)
I'm the degradation of the constellation
I'm unwritten laws in black and white
I'm a silicone chip on a powertrip
I'm an overload of megabyte
let's start a fire
let's walk the wire
watch me bleeding holy gasoline
I'm a gun, I'm second to none
I'm a gun, I'm second to none
I'm a gun
I'm a gun, I'm second to none
I'm a gun, I'm second to none
I'm a gun
I'm a gun, I'm second to none
I'm a gun, I'm second to none
I'm a gun
