I've Got A Gun! (Acoustic)

I've Got A Gun (Acoustic)

Recorded this in March 2021.

I got a gun to save myself,
From those with the power
And those with the wealth.
Without my gun, Mr President,
What's going to protect me
From the government?

I've got a gun. I've got a gun.
I've got a gun, better get yourself one
Before the black helicopters come.

Without my gun
To cover your back,
Who's going to keep
Deep State in check?
When all the gun owners are
Doing time,
Who's gonna protect you
From violent crime?
Pretty soon they'll be coming
For everyone,
But it won't be so easy
If you've got a gun.
When they finally arrive
To murder me,
At least I'll die
Gun in hand and free.

I've got a gun. I've got a gun.
I've got a gun, better get yourself one
Before the black helicopters come.

With my gun
I can beat the odds,
Defeat the elite
And cheat the gods,
And keep the criminal
Class at bay
And do the things I do
In my own way.

I've got a gun. I've got a gun.
I've got a gun, better get yourself one
Before the Super Galaxies
And the coffins come.

With every gun owner
In Guantanamo Bay,
Who's gonna protect you
From the CIA?
When I get a visit from
The powers-that-be,
At least I'll take
Some of them with me.
We all need protection
From the men at the top,
The billionaire banker
And the Thought Cop.
You get to live and love and fight
At least one more day
As long as you don't give
Your guns away!

I've got a gun. I've got a gun.
I've got a gun, better get yourself one
Before the black helicopters come.

I've got a gun. I've got a gun.
I've got a gun, better get yourself one
Before the Men-in-Black and the ATF come."
