Big Red Gun (Demo Version) Lyrics

Brothers in arms who share my fears,
Time to protect what you hold dear.
There's been a rise in new ideals,
Threatening to change the way we live.

Who knows what trouble's found a way,
Found a way to your door today.
Who knows what trouble's on its way,
On its way to intimidate.

All I want is a big red gun!
(Oh, yeah, yeah, oh)
I'm gonna shoot, shoot, shoot at the setting sun!
(Oh, yeah, yeah, oh)
And all I want is a big red gun,
I'm gonna shoot, shoot, shoot 'till the thrill is gone!
'Cause this is my right no matter the cost.
Get outta my sight when baby's got a big red gun!
(Oh, yeah, yeah, oh)
Baby's got a big red gun!
(Oh, yeah, yeah, oh)

Pride is a weapon in your hand.
Freedom awards the faithful man.
I hear the message loud and clear,
Straight from his lips into my ear.

And lord I just can't walk away,
Walk away from the enemy.
The law will never disagree,
On the target of my insecurities.

All I want is a big red gun!
(Oh, yeah, yeah, oh)
I'm gonna shoot, shoot, shoot at the setting sun!
(Oh, yeah, yeah, oh)
And all I want a big red gun,
I'm gonna shoot, shoot, shoot 'till the thrill is gone!
And how many lives will have to be lost,
To understand why my baby's got a big red gun?

Baby's got a big red gun!
Baby's got a big red gun!
Baby's got a big red gun!
Baby's got a big red gun!

We call them twisted and deranged,
(Baby's got a big red gun!)
But we gave them the keys to annihilate!
(Baby's got a big red gun!)
How long before the next one's in the ground?
(Baby's got a big red gun!)
So proud of all your history,
But history made a big mistake.
(Baby's got a big red gun!)
The judge jury stand before you now.
(Baby's got a big red gun!)

'Cause baby's got a big red gun!
Baby's got a big red gun!
Baby's got a big red gun!
Oh Momma what have I become?

Billy Talent is a Juno Award-winning Canadian rock band formed in 1993. They performed and recorded together for about a decade before finding a wide mainstream following. Originally called Pezz, the group originates from Streetsville, in Mississauga, Ontario, but now hail from Toronto, Ontario.

The name is inspired by a character named "Billy Tallent" in the 1993 book "Hard Core Logo" by Michael Turner (filmed in 1996) and it has been the name of the band since 2001, after a dispute with the American Pezz.

To date, the band have released five studio albums, the first under the name Pezz named "Watoosh!", the second under the Billy Talent name is called "Billy Talent" with the third called "Billy Talent II". The fourth album,"Billy Talent III", released in 2009, was produced by Brendan O'Brien, who previously worked with AC/DC, Rage Against the Machine, Pearl Jam and The Offspring, among others.
The fifth album called "Dead Silence" was released in september 2012.

Billy Talent have also released a live DVD/CD, "666" featuring live performances from London, Dusseldorf, and the Rock Am Ring festival, held at the Nürburgring in Germany. They have also released two live albums from London and Manchester in September of 2006, of which only 500 of each exist.

Drummer Aaron Solowoniuk revealed that the song "This Is How It Goes" was written for him by Ben with the subject being Aaron's struggle with multiple sclerosis, in an open letter to fans posted on the official website in March 2006. As a sign of the dedication to finding a cure for MS, the band hold an annual show in Canada named "F.U.MS" in which all funds go towards the Multiple Sclerosis Society of Canada.
