Billy's got a gun

Billy´s got a gun, he´s on the run
Confusion in his mind, the blind leads the blind
Oh, Billy´s got a gun, he´s gonna shoot ya down
He´s got evil in his eyes, got a reason to despise
There´s danger in the air
Can you feel it in the air?
Danger (Such a strange emotion)
Can you feel it in the air?
Oh he was locked inside a room without a door
His innocence he suffered for
In a world of black and white, they were wrong and he was right
Just looking for a clue, it´s a nightmare come true
He´s going underground to track that danger down
Oh Billy, why you got that gun?
Never give him an even break
Gettin´ caught is the chance you take
It could be your last mistake
(You could be so helpless)
As a bird with a broken wing
Like a sheep in a lion´s den
Gonna fall but you won´t know when
You hear footsteps in the night, see shadows on the wall
And the ghastly sound of silence, as the mist begins to fall
Then a scream rang out like thunder, but the lightning was too late
As the rain came down on the crimson ground
It was the hand of fate
And a crowd of people gathered round, but Billy couldn´t wait
Confusion in his mind, the blind leads the blind
Oh, Billy´s got a gun, he´s gonna shoot ya down
He´s got evil in his eyes, got a reason to despise
There´s danger in the air
Can you feel it in the air?
Danger (Such a strange emotion)
Can you feel it in the air?
Oh he was locked inside a room without a door
His innocence he suffered for
In a world of black and white, they were wrong and he was right
Just looking for a clue, it´s a nightmare come true
He´s going underground to track that danger down
Oh Billy, why you got that gun?
Never give him an even break
Gettin´ caught is the chance you take
It could be your last mistake
(You could be so helpless)
As a bird with a broken wing
Like a sheep in a lion´s den
Gonna fall but you won´t know when
You hear footsteps in the night, see shadows on the wall
And the ghastly sound of silence, as the mist begins to fall
Then a scream rang out like thunder, but the lightning was too late
As the rain came down on the crimson ground
It was the hand of fate
And a crowd of people gathered round, but Billy couldn´t wait
