Shotgun - Spoon

When the matches burn into dust

Someone’s always gotta be sweeping them up

You done yours, yeah

I know I done mine

You caught a break when I gave you the time

Tell us now, little man, what’s what

You’re the one that had to go show his stuff

You’re the one that brought a shotgun

Yes, you went and brought a shotgun

How many times did you come back and quit?

How many times were you not feeling it?

Calling for blood with your battle song

I’d rather not, got my own thing on

I never wanted to take it outside

You’re the one that had to go bring that fight

Oh, you’re the one that brought a shotgun

You went and brought a shotgun

You’re the one that brought a shotgun

Yeah, you went and brought a shotgun

Another year comes

Another year comes

But nothing’s gonna stop it

Nothing’s gonna stop it

Another year comes

Another year comes

And nothing gonna stop it

Nothing gonna stop it, oh

I shoot straight, my words elemental

Old school South Side like Rock and Roll Rentals

Back when we couldn’t afford the Continental

You and me dreaming 'bout full medical and dental

I never wanted to take it outside

Then you brought what you did to the fight

You’re the one that brought a shotgun

Yes, you went and brought a shotgun

You’re the one that brought a shotgun

You’re the one that made it no fun

You’re the one that brought a shotgun

Yeah, you went and brought a shotgun

You’re the one that brought a shotgun

You went and brought a shotgun
