Gonna Shoot You Right Down Songtext

Verse 1:
Heartbreaker
Caught in a web of broken dreams
When you face reality
Life's not as easy as it seems

Bridge:
No time
To cry
This time we take no prisoners

Verse 2:
Smile for the cameras
Until you choke on vanity
You'll make the headlines
You blow them all away, you're only seventeen...

Chorus:
Dream of life among the stars and shiny silver diamonds
There's a price to pay for that, and a gun that's gonna shoot you right...
Down!
And a gun that's gonna shoot you right down

Verse 3:
Heartbreaker
You're back again out on the streets
Just because someone broke your heart doesn't mean
That I'll be there to dry your tears

(Bridge)

Verse 4:
Take all your chances
And try to steal the show from me
No easy feat babe
My weapon's loaded and the devil's on the scene

(Chorus)

Heartbreaker...

Break (sung):
You can spend your money and spend your time
You can waste your life if it gives you peace of mind
Then you change your ways and pretend you're fine
You're not fooling me!!!

Extended Chorus:
Dream of life among the stars and shiny silver diamonds
There's a price to pay for that, and a gun that's gonna shoot you right...
You thought you had a chance but nobody cares and nobody wants
To see you on that screen they're always gonna shoot right...
Down!

Coda:
And a gun that's gonna shoot you right...
Heartbreaker
