Gunslinger by The Graduate Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Stay clean 'til seventeen
The worry makes a fool of me
I'll never stay in line, in time
We're wide awake 'til dawn
We fell where we belong
My body pays the price
You'll try to take my life and only get my spine
You try to take my life
You'll only get my spine
[Chorus]
Please, oh please believe in anything but me
[Verse 2]
Afraid to touch the skin
Defiant to the end
Open up your mouth
Say, "Sing to me just right
Sing to me all night"
Say, "Sing to me just right
Sing to me all night"
[Chorus]
Please, oh please believe in anything but me
So get lost or make your move
Yeah, everyone's got better things to do
And they won't wait on you
[Bridge]
Stay clean 'til seventeen
The worry makes a fool of me
My body pays the price
You'll try to take my life and only get my spine
[Chorus]
Please, oh please believe in anything but me
So get lost or make your move
Yeah, everyone's got better things to do
And they won't wait on you
Get lost or get sold
Everyone's got somewhere else to go
And they won't wait on you
Stay clean 'til seventeen
The worry makes a fool of me
I'll never stay in line, in time
We're wide awake 'til dawn
We fell where we belong
My body pays the price
You'll try to take my life and only get my spine
You try to take my life
You'll only get my spine
[Chorus]
Please, oh please believe in anything but me
[Verse 2]
Afraid to touch the skin
Defiant to the end
Open up your mouth
Say, "Sing to me just right
Sing to me all night"
Say, "Sing to me just right
Sing to me all night"
[Chorus]
Please, oh please believe in anything but me
So get lost or make your move
Yeah, everyone's got better things to do
And they won't wait on you
[Bridge]
Stay clean 'til seventeen
The worry makes a fool of me
My body pays the price
You'll try to take my life and only get my spine
[Chorus]
Please, oh please believe in anything but me
So get lost or make your move
Yeah, everyone's got better things to do
And they won't wait on you
Get lost or get sold
Everyone's got somewhere else to go
And they won't wait on you
