James - Fire So Close lyrics
[James - Fire So Close lyrics]
Why so close
Big boys in black hats
Cowboys with white guns
White guns shoot blue white
Blue white baptism no buffaloes
No Indians no more buffaloes
Red sky is falling blue blood no stalling
White heat will strip you no time to run far
(refrain 1) ivan's built
(got) a wall of lead 'round his house
Nobody can get in or out
Running out of food for ammunition
Frightened of the darkness
Sending out scouts
Why hang the fire so close
Why so close
(refrain 2)
Wayne's got a wall that's much more subtle
Wore headphones since he was born
Watches Ivan through dark glasses
Hand ('s) on his gun waiting for the storm
One false move and we all fall down
No funeral games, no such fun
Here's your ticket to the party
That's what you get for playing with a gun
Six-gun so close
(refrain 1, refrain 2)
Why stand the fire so close
Why?
Big boys in black hats
Cowboys with white guns
White guns shoot blue white
Blue white baptism no buffaloes
No Indians no more buffaloes
Red sky is falling blue blood no stalling
White heat will strip you no time to run far
(refrain 1) ivan's built
(got) a wall of lead 'round his house
Nobody can get in or out
Running out of food for ammunition
Frightened of the darkness
Sending out scouts
Why hang the fire so close
Why so close
(refrain 2)
Wayne's got a wall that's much more subtle
Wore headphones since he was born
Watches Ivan through dark glasses
Hand ('s) on his gun waiting for the storm
One false move and we all fall down
No funeral games, no such fun
Here's your ticket to the party
That's what you get for playing with a gun
Six-gun so close
(refrain 1, refrain 2)
Why stand the fire so close
Why?
