lyrics

Grown tired in a past life
Of only holding never owning
Looked up dealers in Yellow Pages
Men with moustaches and trailers
Sent a letter postmarked me.
For a twenty two, basically free.
Ask no questions and I’ll tell you no lies
Deal is done beside a gumtree.

Not for safety, just for fun
Maybe I should buy a gun

Took it out past Rutherglen
To a mate’s down by Myrtleford
Shot tin cans as the sun went down
Drank warm beer upon the ground
I’m not one for nostalgia
Or outlandish claims
I’m just looking for a way to pass the time
Or for the time to pass me
The time to pass me

Not for safety, just for fun
Maybe I should buy a gun
Not for protecting anyone
Maybe I should buy a gun

Threw it back into the boot
Did the last ks outta town
Thought of my new life with the mettle I found
And the words of the university crowdHard to say what to hate more
The ignorance of the rich or the poor
Either way I’ll be out here
Listening to metal against the horse stalls
Listening to shells against the horse stalls

Not for safety, just for fun
Maybe I should buy a gun
Not for protecting anyone
Maybe I should buy a gun
