SFporttin' a rainbow Gclip
I had this Ggun guy staring at me
DWondering where I got it
And he Fjust about flipped over Git!
I don't Gknow his name, yeah, but Djust the same
He buys a Fliteral mountain of Gdeath
And I Glost 5 or 6 Dbidding wars against him
Yeah, unFtil I had no money Gleft
I said uFntil I had no money Gleft
Yeah, unFtil I had no money lGeft
Oh!

I don't Gwant you getting hurt if you're Dtoo disappointed
If the fFeathers are broken and Gdead
The Gbirds look good in person
But Dnot in the photos
And Fsuper vice versa, I Gbet!
I've seen the Gauctioneer getting Dpretty frustrated
If Fsomething good gets under Gbid
When I Gwent down there
I got Dpretty damned suspicious
But he Fseems like a pretty good Gkid
Yeah, he Fseems like a pretty good Gkid
Well, he Fseems like a pretty good Gkid!

[Verse]
This Gjoint's been around for a Dwhile
And it feels like the Fsame old crowd each Gtime
But Gthere's always that chance
Of a Dshill biddin' trucker
Trying to Fhelp the old man make a Gdime
There's one Ggun guy coming sDtraight out of Texas
Doesn't Fkeep not one for Ghimself
He's got a Gkingdom of gun shops
He Dlikes to decorate 'em
With the Ftrophies of somebody Gelse
Yeah, the Ftrophies of somebody Gelse
Well, the Ftrophies of somebody Gelse!
