We ran guns for the fun of it
drank tequila for the hell of it,
youth?
we got rid of it along
with the green shield stamps,

but now they're seeking us
they have the green light
and the right to terminate us
what did us do wrong?

Being elderly?
it was sold to me
by a nice man on Petticoat Lane
but
if I see him again
I'll give him a tongue lashing
a full on ear bashing,

it's not what it should be
and by it I mean
being elderly.

can't trust a spiv.
