I am cocking the gun
I’m not the only one here
With a hard-on for violence
But it’s all in good fun
If I seem quiet and shy
I’m still a killer on the inside
I’m still a killer on the inside
You say too much is never enough
You get around so much
You’d break a world record bringing me off
Let haters say we’re way too demanding
When the world’s on its knees we’ll be standing, yeah
They are starting a war
I hear that it’s gonna rain
And you know how it goes
First it rains, then it pours
So get your foot in the door
I hear it's warmer on the inside
It's always warmer on the inside
I swear my word was never in doubt
I get around so much
I’ve got a red letter calling me out
Let haters say we’re way too demanding
When the world’s on its knees we’ll be standing, yeah
Put the light on
And leave your shame in the bathroom
With your birthday suit
Cause the fight’s on
And you know it’s true
I don’t pull my punches for anyone but you
Are you ready to go?
They say life on the lam
Is as nice as the weather
And it’s starting to blow
But I’m as calm as an eye
I’m only screaming on the inside x3
