Leppard Def Billy`s Got A Gun Lyrics

Billy`s Got A Gun Lyrics

Billy's got a gun, he's on the run 

Confusion in his mind, the blind leads the blind 

Oh, Billy's got a gun, he's gonna shoot ya down 

He's got evil in his eyes, got a reason to despise 

There's danger in the air 



Can you feel it in the air? 

Danger (Such a strange emotion) 

Can you feel it in the air? 



Oh he was locked inside a room without a door 

His innocence he suffered for 

In a world of black and white, they were wrong and he was right 

Just looking for a clue, it's a nightmare come true 

He's going underground to track that danger down 

Oh Billy, why you got that gun? 



Never give him an even break 

Gettin' caught is the chance you take 

It could be your last mistake 

(You could be so helpless) 

As a bird with a broken wing 

Like a sheep in a lion's den 

Gonna fall but you won't know when 



You hear footsteps in the night, see shadows on the wall 

And the ghastly sound of silence, as the mist begins to fall 

Then a scream rang out like thunder, but the lightning was too late 



As the rain came down on the crimson ground 

It was the hand of fate 

And a crowd of people gathered round, but Billy couldn't wait
