Running Gun Blues Lyrics - David Bowie

1 I count the corpses on my left

2 I find I'm not so tidy

3 So I better get away

4 Better make it today

5 I've cut twenty-three down since Friday

6 But I can't control it

7 My face is drawn

8 My instinct still emotes it

9 I slash them cold

10 I kill them dead

11 I broke the gooks

12 I cracked their heads

13 I'll bomb them out from under the beds

14 But now I've got the running gun blues

15 It seems the peacefuls stopped the war

16 Left generals squashed and stifled

17 But I'll slip out again tonight

18 'Cause they haven't taken back my rifle

19 For I promote oblivion

20 And I'll plug a few civilians

21 I'll slash them cold

22 I'll kill them dead

23 I'll break them gooks

24 I'll crack their heads

25 I'll slice them till they're running red

26 But now I've got the running gun blues
