Em G
Robert's got a quick hand
D A
He'll look around the room he won't tell you his plan
Em G
Got a rolled cigarette
D A
Hangin' out his mouth, he's a cowboy kid
Em G
Yeah, found a six-shooter gun
D A
In his dad’s closet hidden with a box of fun things
Em G
I don't even know what
D A
But he's comin' for you, yeah he's comin for you, hey
Chorus:
Em G
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
D A
You'd better run, better run, outrun my gun
Em G
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks
D A
You'd better run, better run, faster than my bullet
Repeat Chorus
Em G
Daddy works a long day
D A
He'll be coming home late, he's coming home late
Em G
And he's bringing me a surprise
D A
‘Cause dinner's in the kitchen and it's packed in ice
Em G
I've waited for a long time
D A
The slight of my hand is now a quick pull trigger
Em G
I reason with my cigarette
D A
And say your hair's on fire you must have lost your wits, yeah
