Translation
Bilingual
We're firing blanks at one another
Shooting rounds into the sun
Using cartridge after cartridge
No safety trigger to turn on
And we can't see where we're aiming
Or who we're aiming at
We might be hitting one another
Or ourselves or our lovers
Or the empty space above
Everyone's got a gun
Everyone's got a gun
Everyone's got a gun
Everyone's got one
Everyone's got a gun
Everyone's got a gun
But you only got one shot
ย
She's standing naked looking at him
Shoot an apple off her head
When it's only his strange, strange way
Of trying to get her into bed
He says we tried to play a game
But clearly you had all the cards
I thought we had an understanding
We'd do nothing on the hand
Over hard or over planned
Everyone's got a gun
Everyone's got a gun
Everyone's got a gun
Everyone's got one
Everyone's got a gun
Everyone's got a gun
But you only got one shot
ย
So use it well my little baby
Use it well my little one
'Cause the first day that you know it
You'll look back and you'll be gone
So I'll be polishing the barrel
Just to hand it down to you
I wouldn't say you had to use it
But it'll be there if you choose it
Life's short and I'm so confused
Everyone's got a gun
Everyone's got a gun
Everyone's got a gun
Everyone's got one
Everyone's got a gun
Everyone's got a gun
But you only got
Everyone's got a gun
Everyone's got a gun
But you only got one shot
You only got one shot
You only got one shot
One shot, one shot baby
One shot, one shot
One shot, one shot baby
One shot, one shot
One shot, one shot baby
One shot
One shot, one shot baby
One shot
One shot, one shot baby
One shot
One shot, one shot baby
One shot
One shot, one shot baby
One shot
Kiss kiss, bang bang
