The Clash - Tommy Gun (Recorded 1978) lyrics

Tommy gun, you ain't happy unless you got one Tommy gun, ain't gonna shoot the place up just for fun Maybe he wanna die for the money Maybe he wants to k** for his country Whatever he wants, he's gonna get it Tommy gun, you better strip it down for a customs run Tommy gun, waiting in the airport 'till kingdom come And we can watch you make it on the 9:00 news Standing there in Palestine, lighting a fuse Whatever you want, you're gonna get it Tommy gun Tommy gun, you'll be dead when your war is won Tommy gun, but did you have to gun down everyone? I can see it's k** or be k**ed A nation of destiny has got to be fulfilled Whatever you want, you're gonna get it Tommy gun, you can be a hero in an age of none Tommy gun, I'm cutting out your picture from page one I'm gonna get a jacket just like yours And give my full support to your cause Whatever you want, you're gonna get it So let's agree about the price And make it one jet airliner for ten prisoners Boats and tanks and planes, it's your game Kings and queens and generals learn your name I see all the innocents The human sacrifice And if d**h comes so cheap Then the same goes for life
