Big boys in black hats
Cowboys with white guns
White guns shoot blue white
Blue white baptism
No buffaloes
No indians
No more buffaloes
Red sky is falling
Blue blood no stalling
White heat will strip you
No time to run far
(refrain 1)
Ivan's built a wall of lead 'round his house
Nobody can get in or out
Running out of food for ammunition
Frightened of the darkness
Sending out scouts
Why hang the fire so close
Why hang the fire so close
Why hang the fire so close
Why so close
(refrain 2)
Wayne's got a wall that's much more subtle
Wore headphones since he was born
Watches ivan through dark glasses
Hand on his gun waiting for the storm
One false move and we all fall down
No funeral games, no such fun
Here's your ticket to the party
That's what you get for playing with a gun
Six-gun so close
(refrain 1)
Ivan's got a wall of lead 'round his house
Nobody can get in or out
Running out of food for ammunition
Frightened of the darkness
Sending out scouts
(refrain 2)
Wayne's got a wall that's much more subtle
Wore headphones since he was born
Watches ivan through dark glasses
Hands on his gun waiting for the storm
Why stand the fire so close (why)
Why stand the fire so close (why)
Why stand the fire so close (why)
Why?
Why so close Big boys in black hats Cowboys with white guns White guns shoot blue white Blue white baptism No buffaloes No indians No more buffaloes Red sky is falling Blue blood no stalling White heat will strip you No time to run far (refrain 1) Ivan's built a wall of lead 'round his house Nobody can get in or out Running out of food for ammunition Frightened of the darkness Sending out scouts Why hang the fire so close Why hang the fire so close Why hang the fire so close Why so close (refrain 2) Wayne's got a wall that's much more subtle Wore headphones since he was born Watches ivan through dark glasses Hand on his gun waiting for the storm One false move and we all fall down No funeral games, no such fun Here's your ticket to the party That's what you get for playing with a gun Six-gun so close (refrain 1) Ivan's got a wall of lead 'round his house Nobody can get in or out Running out of food for ammunition Frightened of the darkness Sending out scouts (refrain 2) Wayne's got a wall that's much more subtle Wore headphones since he was born Watches ivan through dark glasses Hands on his gun waiting for the storm Why stand the fire so close (why) Why stand the fire so close (why) Why stand the fire so close (why) Why?
