G D I wore a shirt one day with a machine gun silhouette F G Sporttin' a rainbow clip G I had this gun guy staring at me D Wondering where I got it F G And he just about flipped over it! G D I don't know his name, yeah, but just the same F G He buys a literal mountain of death G D And I lost 5 or 6 bidding wars against him F G Yeah, until I had no money left F G I said until I had no money left F G Yeah, until I had no money left Oh! I don’t want you getting hurt if you’re too disappointed If the feathers are broken and dead The birds look good in person But not in the photos And super vice versa, I bet! I’ve seen the auctioneer getting pretty frustrated If something good gets under bid When I went down there I got pretty damned suspicious But he seems like a pretty good kid Yeah, he seems like a pretty good kid Well, he seems like a pretty good kid! This joint’s been around for a while And it feels like the same old crowd each time But there’s always that chance Of a shill biddin’ trucker Trying to help the old man make a dime There’s one gun guy coming straight out of Texas Doesn’t keep not one for himself He’s got a kingdom of gun shops He likes to decorate 'em With the trophies of somebody else Yeah, the trophies of somebody else Well, the trophies of somebody else!
