Jack White - Machine Gun Silhouette

I wore a shirt one day with a machine gun silhouette
sportin’ a rainbow clip
I had this gun guy staring at me
wondering where I got it
and he just about flipped over it
I don’t know his name yeah
but just the same
he buys a literal mountain of death
And I lost 5 or 6 bidding wars against him yeah
until I had no money left
I said until I had no money left
Yeah until I had no money left
Oh
I don’t want you getting hurt
if you’re too disappointed
if the feathers are broken and dead
The birds look good in person
but not in the photos and super vice versa I bet
I’ve seen the auctioneer getting pretty frustrated
if something good gets on the bid
When I went down
there I got pretty damned suspicious
but he seems like a pretty good kid
Yeah he seems like a pretty good kid
Well he seems like a pretty good kid
This joint’s been around for a while
and it feels like the same old crowd each time
But there’s always that chance of a shill
biddin’ trucker trying to help a young man make a dime
There’s one gun guy coming straight
out of Texas doesn’t eat not one for himself
He’s got a kick in the gun shop
she likes to take him ridin’
with the trophies of somebody else
Yeah the trophies of somebody else
Well the trophies of somebody else
