The Bravery Of Being Out Of Range Lyrics

You have a natural tendency
To squeeze off a shot
You're good fun at parties
You wear the right masks

You're old but you still
Like a laugh in the locker room
You can't abide change
You're at home on the range

You opened the suitcase
Behind the old workings
To show off the Magnum
You deafened the canyon

A comfort a friend
Only to be upstaged in the end
By the Uzi machine gun
Does the recoil remind you

Remind you of sex?
Old man what the hell you gonna kill next? (yeah)
Old timer, who you gonna kill next?

I looked over Jordan and what did I see
Saw a U.S. Marine in a pile of debris
I swam in your pools and lay under your palm trees
I looked in the eyes of the Indian
Who lay on the Federal Building steps

And through the range finder over the hill
I saw the frontline boys popping their pills
Sick of the mess they find on that desert stage
And the bravery of being out of range
Yeah, the question is vexed

Old man what the hell you gonna kill next? (yeah)
Old timer who you gonna kill next

Hey bartender over here
Two more shots and two more beers
Sir, turn up the TV sound
The war has started on the ground

Just love those laser guided bombs
They're really great for righting wrongs
You hit the target and win the game
From bars 3,000 miles away
3,000 miles away

We play the game
With the bravery of being out of range (yeah)
We zap and maim
With the bravery of being out of range
We strafe the train
With the bravery of being out of range
We gained terrain
With the bravery of being out of range

We play the game
With the bravery of being out of range
