The Big Guns - Jenny Lewis/The Watson Twins
Well you praise him
Then you thank him
Til you reach the by-and-by
And I've won hundreds at the track
But I'm not betting on the afterlife
Then you kiss his lips
He forgives you for it
He forgives you for all you've done
But not me
I'm still angry
What have I done
Why am I always missing
The big guns
First I'll build a sword
Get some words to explain
It's a plan brother at least
And I'll pretend that everybody here wants peace
Have mercy have mercy have mercy on me
Cause we're tired and lonely and we're bloody
What have we done
Why are we still running
From our own failing bodies
The big guns the big guns
Sing mercy sing mercy sing mercy on me
Let's pretend that everybody here wants peace
What have we done
Why are we still chasing our own tails
The big guns the big guns the big guns
