Paul Weller - A Bullet For Everyone lyrics

rate me

Everybody doing it

Doing it real good

Everybody knowing it

Like they know they should

Shiny sabres rattling

Long into the night

And everybody saying it

Saying what they like

There are words there to inspire you

There are words there to be heard

Maybe none of them will fire you

But none the less they will make you listen by force.

Everybody shouting it

From every place on high

Everybody loving it

Loving what they find

There's blood upon each handshake

Lies upon each word

And everybody killing it

Killing off what's good

There are holes in the divisions

Between the haves and who have nots

There's a bomb for every city

Now they don't know where to stop

And they say there's no provisions

There's not enough to go round

But when it comes to the gun there's a bullet for everyone

When it comes to the gun there's a bullet for everyone

Everybody wanting it

Wanting it to stop

The chaos and destruction

The bloodshed on the rocks

The pain and deprivation

The losses and the grief

The tired, worn out promises

Of the politicians' brief

There are holes in the divisions

Between the haves and who have nots

There's a bomb for every city

Now they don't know how to stop

And they say there's no provisions

There's not enough to go round

But when it comes to the gun there's a bullet for everyone

When it comes to the gun there's a bullet for everyone

When it comes to the gun there's a bullet for everyone
