Citizen Cope Bullet And A Target Lyrics

Bullet And A Target Lyrics



Mr.Dali Lamas

Another sister's shootin' heroin tomarrow

Amputees in Freetown

Sierra Leone's

The church wasnt honest

The state put the youth in a harness

Creatin' hostility among us

Teacher said no college

Still the kid's gotta get a check with a couple commas

People wanna bomb us

More people gotta scatter and run rom us

You can blame it on Zeus and Apollo and Adonis



But what you've done here

Is put yourself between a bullet and a target

And it won't be long before

You're pulling yourself away 



But what you've done here

Is put yourself between a bullet and a target

And it won't be long before

You're pulling yourself away 



I've been knowing her for years

I've been seeing her foor years she got dark, dark wavy hair

With a voice like she just don't care

She got a skirt with a halter top

She's got a dad who nevr gave enough

She drink a beer with a proper shot

She got knocked up in a pickup truck

But she got engaged when she was nineteen

To this dude who was acting insane

Has a .45 that he always cleaned

Said one day one day one too many days

Now she ducked and she ran away

Never to be heard from, never to be seen

I check the cover of a magazine

I'm just wondering how, just wondering how



But what you've done here

Is put yourself between a bullet and a target

And it won't be long before

You're pulling yourself away
