Lyrics for Song: Gun 
Lyrics for Album: Through The Looking Glass [1987]
  
               
  33186>Now me and my partner we work on the run
  The quick try to get quicker
  And the creepers get hung
  Now it's you that got wasted tonight on the job
  One lost his liquor
  And the other lost his head
 
 
  Ten sticky thumb prints on the door and the sink
  But nothin' saw nothin' - just smelt' the stink
  Five hundred mugshots and a hundred to one
  Four forgotten and the rest just won't come
 
 
  When you've begun to think like a gun
  The rest of the year has already gone
  When you've begun to think like a gun
  The days of the year have suddenly gone.
 
 
  Blood on the windows and blood on the walls
  Blood on the ceiling and down in the halls
  And the papers keep pounding on everything I burned
  And the people getting restless but they'll never learn
 
 
  I picked up a doctor - he's good with a knife
  Says anaesthetic's a waste of his time
  Works in a hurry but always worthwhile
  Knows they won't be back for a long long time
 
 
  Top of the staircase was ready to fall
  We were still waiting downstairs in the hall
  Watch out for big mama, she'll set you on fire
  Or go for your neck with the chicken wire
 
 
  When you've begun to think like a gun
  The days of the year have suddenly gone
  Once you've begun to think like a gun
  The days of the year have already gone
 
 
  Mother of plenty, mother of none
  You've got me cornered and still on the run
  I don't care nothing 'bout you anyway
  Stuck in this hole I'm well on my way
 
 
  When you've begun to live like a gun
  The days of the year have already gone
  When you've begun to think like a gun
  The days of the year have suddenly gone
