Cat Power Miscellaneous Johnny's Got A Gun Crush the resistence before it's begun Sounds of voices you don't have to confront Your hands upon a hero Becoming a man ??? Better watch out 'cause johnny's got a gun Ooh get all the armies Get all the arms Get all the armories The harbour's blocated The streets barricated Every thought is under lock and key There's an ideal rising that you can't protect From the same poor souls you say you protect There's a fire of burning hatred in every mother's son Better watch out because johnny's got a gun Anchored your war ships Claimed all the air-strips Readied the seeds of decay Stolen youth to fill your troups Keeping rebellion at bay The fathers before you now lie in the graves Being remembered before it's too late And the sons you call rebels becoming one Better watch out because johnny's got a gun The hour's upon you The past will soon haunt you Yesterday becomes today The helpless the hopeless The lost ones the homeless The weak can't afford to be brave There's only so much a poor man can take Before he no longer fears making mistakes Dying's the answer The dying be done Better watch out because johnny's got a gun Come from the country, come from the country Come from the country, come from the country The city and shore They come from the wind and the rain They come from the fires whose ashes are cold They come from the desert snow They feel they'll be dying but more than that fear The cries of oppression that no-one can hear To every last rebel Surrender's all wrong 'cause johnny's got a gun |
