W.a.s.p. - Shotgun lyrics

When your madman's raised to king And your starving babies scream One world, one king you think is your god And freedoms dead and long gone A slave in chains don't never change his song Grab a torch, a pitchfork and get your guns You gave'em hope and you tied the rope Dead man's bones don't lie Shot a beast and I licked my teeth Tonight, hail the king a shotgun Tonight, got a rock and roll gun (Tonight, lock and loading 'my gun) Shoot if they stand Shoot if they run And pray lightning strikes'em Tonight, it's alright Hail to the king a shotgun And you cheered y'alls clown to king Till your tongue's too numb to scream Ooh, the promise of tomorrow is long gone And the whip keeps pounding down now From the head that wears the crown The plantations cotton's rotten so long You swore an oath and you lied the most Your villain king don't cry Choose a gun now or lose your sons And you might pray to the fool you are Villain kings don't cry Save your women and save yourself This ain't no time to cry, tonight And you might play to the fool you are Run for your lives Choose a gun now or lose your son, mama
