Lyrics: Why'd You Bring A Shotgun To The Party

"Why'd You Bring A Shotgun To The Party"

Alone, afraid, the kid your mother made
Sitting in your room drooling like a loser with all this doom
You think, and then you start to drink
Then you get so paranoid with all the drugs they fill you with

Then boom - does it make you feel like a man?
Boom - it's not the size, we understand
Boom - you think you're gonna get with me
You're never gonna get with me
You're never gonna dance with me

I admit, I feel like you, like shit
But I don't go round and take it out on everyone about it
We're all part of the system
You wanna start a war? You think that anyone would listen?

Why'd you bring a shotgun to the party?
Why'd you bring a shotgun to the party?
Everybody's got one, there's nothing new about it
Wanna make a statement? You should've come without it

You turn the TV on, watch it if you dare
You see a politician and you start to pull your hair
But it's all two dimension, see there's really nothing there
You wanna tell them what you think, you think they fucking care?

And boom - do you think they hear you now?
And boom - making noises in the crowd
All in the way that you use it
You love it so much, then why do you abuse it?

Why'd you bring a shotgun to the party?
Why'd you bring a shotgun to the party?
Everybody's got one, there's nothing new about it
Wanna make a statement? You should've come without it

We're all part of the system
Load em up, shoot em down, but you keep fucking missing
We're all part of the system
Load em up, shoot em down, but you keep fucking missing

Alone, afraid, you wanna make them pay...

That's why you bring a shotgun to the party
Why'd you bring a shotgun to the party?
Everybody's got one, there's nothing new about it
Wanna get the girl, then you should've come without it

Why'd you bring a shotgun to the party?
Why'd you bring a shotgun to the party?
Why'd you bring a shotgun to the party?
Why'd you bring a shotgun to the party?
