========================================================
[Intro]
[Verse]
You have a nat
ural tendency,
to squeeze of
f a shot
You're good fu
n at parties,
you wear the r
ight masks
You're old, bu
t you still li
ke a laugh in
the locker roo
m
You can't abid
e change, you'
re at home on
the range
[Verse]
You opened the
suitcase, beh
ind the old wo
rkings
To show off th
e magnum, you
deafened the c
anyon
A comfort a fr
iend, only ups
taged in the e
nd by the Uzi
machine gun
Does the recoil remind you...
[Chorus]
Remind you of sex
Old man what t
he hell you go
nna kill next?
Hey, old ti
mer who you
gonna kill nex
t?
[Verse]
I looked over
Jordan and wha
t did I see
Saw a U.S. Mar
ine in a pile
of debris
I swum in your
pools and lay
under your pa
lm trees
I looked in th
e eyes of the
Indian
Who lay on the Federal Building steps
[Verse]
And through th
e rangefinder
over the hill
I saw the fron
tline boys pop
ping their pil
ls
Sick of the me
ss they find o
f that desert
stage
And the braver
y of being out
of range
Yeah the question is vexed
[Chorus]
Old man what
the hell you
gonna kill nex
t?
Hey, old ti
mer who you
gonna kill ne
xt?
[Instrumental]
[Verse]
Thirty years l
ater, it’s the
same old tune
No closer to p
eace than the
man in the moo
n.
The president
is still just
as crazy as a
loon,
Still picking
fights in some
foreign saloo
n.
[Verse]
Bombs still fa
lling out of t
he sky,
The band's sti
ll playing Mis
s American Pie
,
The gunner sti
ll sleeps in s
ome foreign fi
eld,
And the boys a
re still comin
g home on a sh
ield.
But nothing is real
[Verse]
We’re still playing the game
with the brave
ry of being ou
t of range
We still zap a
nd maim
with the brave
ry of being ou
t of range
Still strafing
the train
with the brave
ry of being ou
t of range
We still gain
terrain
with the brave
ry of being ou
t of range
Still fucking
insane
with the brave
ry of being ou
t of range
Still channell
ing John Wayne
with the brave
ry of being ou
t of range
Still blowing
out our own da
mn brains [
shot]
Yeah wit
h the bravery
of being out o
f range
[Verse*] (* a little bit more quiet)
Hey bartender,
over here
Two more shots
and two more
beers
Sir, turn up t
he TV sound
The war has st
arted on the g
round
[Verse] (*slow)
Just love thos
e laser guided
bombs
They're really
great for rig
hting wrongs
You hit the ta
rget and win t
he game from b
ars 3,000 mile
s away
3,000 miles away
[Outro] (*slow)
We play the ga
me with the br
avery of being
out of range
