Queen 6. Put out the fire Lyrics

They called him a hero in the land of the free
But he wouldn't shake my hand boy, he disappointed me
So I got my handgun and I blew him away
That critter was a bad guy, I had to make him pay

You might fear for my reason, I don't care what they say
Look out baby it's the season for the mad masquerade
Put out the fire, put out the fire, put out the fire
You need a bullet like a hole in the head
Put out the fire, put out the fire, put out the fire
Don't believe what your grandaddy said
She was my lover, it was a shame that she died
But the constitution's right on my side
Cos I caught my lover in my neighbour's bed
I got retribution, filled 'em full of lead

I've been told it's the fashion to let me on the streets again
It's nothing but a crime of passion and I'm not to blame
Put out the fire, put out the fire, put out the fire
You need a weapon like a hole in the head
Put out the fire, put out the fire, put out the fire
And let yor sons and your daughters sleep sound in their beds

You know a gun never killed nobody, you can ask anyone
People get shot by people, people with guns
Put out the fire, put out the fire, put out the fire
You need a gun like a hole in the head
Put out the fire, put out the fire, put out the fire
Just tell me that old fashioned gun law is dead

Shoot me, shoot, shoot me, shoot, shoot
