FOUND A GIRL AND I GAVE HER A RING
SHE WAS EVERYTHING I'M LOOKING FOR
IT'S OVER NOW
AND THIS IS HOW I LOST THE WAR

MY HEAD GOT HEAVY AS ACHRISTMAS CAKE
AND I MADE A BREAK FOR THE DOOR
IT STARTS SO YOUNG, YOU SHARP YOUR TONGUE
I LOST THE WAR

BUT YOU'RE NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH A GUN FOR A MOUTH
BUT YOU'RE NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH A GUN FOR A MOUTH

WE KEPT ON TALKING TILL THE MORNING LIGHT
AND THE NIGHT WASN'T NIGHT ANYMORE
BENEATH THE TREES, WE CRUSHED THE LEAVES
I LOST THE WAR

BUT YOU'RE NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH A GUN FOR A MOUTH
NO YOU'RE NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH A MOUTH FOR A GUN
GUN FOR A MOUTH

YOU CAN SHOUT AND SPIT AND KISS ME WITH IT
POUT AND FROWN AND SHOOT ME DOWN

BUT THERE'S A REDHEADED ANGEL IN THE WINGS
SINGING LAY YE DOWN YOUR SWORD
IT'S OVER NOW
AND THIS IS HOW I LOST THE WAR

BUT YOU'RE NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH A GUN FOR A MOUTH
NO YOU'RE NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH A GUN FOR A MOUTH

YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH
YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH
YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH
BUT YOU'RE NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH A GUN FOR A MOUTH

GOT A GUN FOR A MOUTH
GOT A GUN FOR A MOUTH

GUN GOT A GUN
GUN GOT A GUN
GUN GOT A GUN
GUN GOT A GUN
