Bullet in a Gun

by Joe Stevens
2003


I have such disdain for myself
Ain’t no way to open this song nicely
I could use a few B vitamins
The most common deficiency in a rainy city

[chorus]

I am so hard on myself
Never in a hundred years
Would I be so hard on anybody else

Don’t got a good coat for the rain
Too cloudy to watch the planes
Ain’t shit else to do on a Monday
Ain’t got no money anyway
Well, there’s a place I got to be
Quarter till, two-thirty or three
But I’m gonna sit down in my chair today
I’m gonna wait, I’m gonna stay,
I’m gonna fade, I’m gonna pray

[chorus]

I’m so tired of having nothing to say
Oh, acting like I don’t exist
Sometimes, yeah, I wanna shout, Yeah
But it’s a quiet room when you’re judging
All the words on the way out, yeah

Fuck it, I can’t throw a dart straight
But I’m good with my hands
And I can’t always speak well
But I got a mic and a set of cans
I may not think much of myself
But I don’t hurt no one
I’m like a bullet in a gun
I’m like a bullet in a gun
I’m at the starting line, it’s racing day
I’m like a bullet in a gun
I’m so excited, I just can’t wait
I’m like a bullet in a gun
I got so much heart, I been looking for fun
I’m like a bullet in a gun
Girl, you look so good to me
I’m like a bullet in a gun
I’m like a bullet in a gun
I won’t stop until you’re done
I’m like a bullet in a gun
I’m like a bullet in a gun
A bullet in a gun
A bullet in a gun

[chorus]
