Lyrics
[Intro]
Oh yeah, yeah
[Verse 1]
She was a, a ballerina on a subway train
Stiletto heels and a candy cane, uh
Looked like a number on a station wall
Hot on the tail of a social call
[Verse 2]
I wet my lips, I thought I had it made
Like Valentino with a hand grenade
I made my move with my libido on
She circled once, then she dropped the bomb
[Chorus]
She got the big guns
Pointed at my heart
Bang, bang, shooting like a firing squad
Big guns
She blew me away
And I went down in flames
[Verse 3]
I met a sidewalk preacher on a roller skate
He said he had the key to Heaven's gate, huh
Wait for the movie 'cause I been there before
I know that like is a battle, love is war
[Chorus]
She got the big guns
Pointed at my heart
Bang, bang, shooting like a firing squad
Big guns
Took me by surprise
She got my lovin' reaching for the sky
[Chorus]
She got the big guns
Pointed at my heart
Bang, bang, shooting like a firing squad
Big guns
She blew me away
And I went down in flames
[Verse 4]
I'm doing time as a backseat Romeo, uh
Play solitaire with my hands in the air
Another night and no bullets to spare
[Chorus]
She got the big guns
Pointed at my heart
Bang, bang, shooting like a firing squad
Big guns, she blew me away
And I went down, down, down in flames, yeah, yeah
[Outro]
Big guns
Big guns
I can feel big guns
Big guns
[Outro]
Uh, yeah
Big guns
Big guns
She really, really got the big guns
She shot me
And I went down in flames
