about

When a gun is very close, the demented holder equally close to trigger point, your best chance is to get hold of the barrel. Guns encapsulate all that men should be ashamed of: wanton destruction for its own sake, xenophobia, racism, religious bigotry, fear of women, fear of the free. Just don't get guns, full stop

lyrics

TWITCHY

Kaleshnikov, the AK47
Shotguns with an action made in heaven
An auto 22, can blow a hole through you
So just beware

If your neighbours give you a hard time
Fix them up with booby-traps and land-mines
Firing squads can judge, all those clowns with drugs
(Not booze or smokes)

Hold off on that trigger
You feel it, it makes you strong
Hold on to that barrel
He's grasping at straws
All he has to keep him hanging on

And if your woman's stepping out of line
Talking of careers and work part-time
A gun can do the talk, later she might sulk
(And burn the toast)

Hold off on that trigger
You feel it, it makes you strong
Hold on to that barrel
He's grasping at straws
All he has to keep him...
Hold off on that trigger
You feel it, it makes you strong
Hold on to that barrel
He's grasping at straws
All he has to keep him hanging on
Keeps him hanging on
It keeps you hanging on
Hanging on
Keeps you hanging on
Hanging on
