real sharp shooter from ellis county,
and the boy knew how to dance
love of my life with 17 bullets in his body,
we never stood a chance
you drove me all around the country,
and we fucked in every single state
hotel beds, behind gas station registers,
backseat bingo in your ford V8
we do a quick stick-em-up
and then go out for milkshakes,
i wipe the foam off of your lips with my tongue
and give you my heart to take
“they don't think they're too smart or desperate
they know that the law always wins
they've been shot at before; but they do not ignore,
that death is the wages of sin.”
ive always been your girl,
ive always been loads of fun
you take off your shirt i lift my dress
to reveal my .38 hand gun
“some day they'll go down together
they'll bury them side by side.
to few it'll be grief, to the law a relief,
but it's death for Bonnie and Clyde.”

you look so cool cigar in your
mouth with one hand on the wheel
im your girl bust you outta jail
that rifle outta make you kneel
i know you think i killed him
for my name in papers
i overhear your brother
worry bout the “way you shaped her”
he loves the sea
drives recklessly
i know he’ll never leave me
summer 33
the car battery
all over my knees
its not your fault you didnt know
what would happen to the ford v8
they call it the death car now
our blood soaked in the seats
souvenir hunters were there
that day in may
they cut off locks of my hair
rejoice at our decay
he loves the sea
drives recklessly
i know he’ll never leave me
he says now bonnie
they hurt you badly
shoot your gun and flea

tell my why the cigarettes don’t bother you darling
tell me when the weight got so heavy, you started falling
tell me bout the way your mom used to sing you to sleep
tell me were you any different before you met me
and i know its crazy
i thought the guilt would fade away
and just leave scars
and fade like scars
i guess that maybe
i thought that my baby
could do no harm
just cause alarm
so how’d you end up here, and what is the story?
babe, i think the guns are getting a bit dirty (gory)
tell me what killed the dinosaurs and what it is that scares you
how’d you get so numb that not even death can phase you
and i know its crazy
i thought the guilt would fade away
and just leave scars
and fade like scars
and i say, “it’s dangerous”
i dont wanna keep playing this,
you say, high school’s a mess
and baby we’re the best
so now we’re both in black and you say they got what they deserved
at what age did you decide to be the ruler of this world
i’ve always liked the dark, you’ve always liked the extreme
but not like this - im stumbling, i’m screaming, i can’t see\
and i know its crazy
i thought the guilt would fade away
and just leave scars
and fade like scars
and i wonder what point in time
that i could have changed your mind
but its too late now
to show you how
