Bad Bad Men

Gwar · Other Songs - Gwar

Billy was and orphan,

Tommy was a whore

Poe got drunk in Baltimore

Getting drunk and shooting guns was all he ever had

Could it be that's what made our boy so bad

Bad bad men and they're coming to town (Bad men)

They shot a man just for snoring to load Billy the kid, Jesse James..

The jail is wide open and the towns in flames

Sneaking in the back door, hiding in the night

Capering with corpses in the dank moonlight

They started robbing banks, then cattle mutilation

Now his offsprings terrorize the nation Billy got drunk,

Bull got even Bull went belly-up and joined up with the G-men

Piece of meat in the street, torn apart in the town

By the inflatable hands of a sinister clown

Bad bad men and they're coming to town (Bad men)

Shot a man just for snoring too damn loud Robert DeNiro, when he's a hero

Bring on the anti-hero, my zero-hero

Hearts full of anger, hearts full of fear Billy looked

up from the bed and said,

"I'm walking outta here"

It's a new religion, carnival of crime

Doomed to repetition, with it we mark time I feel jacked

up, drinking my 4-O

Blew your face to the bumper

And then I just said,

"Yo" It's a new religion, carnival of sleaze

Drag you up that dusty road and leave you creaking in the breeze
