Seems innocent enough when your buying the drinks at the bar And you're both getting loaded You don't even know just the danger you're in 'Cause you're so caught up in the moment But you shoot a smile cuts through the smoke Hits you before you even know A girl is a gun She's harder to handle than you think, son You feel safe when you're with her Think twice before you pull the trigger She feels good in your hand from the first little spark But guns shoot bullets and bullets break hearts Heartbreak's a bitch She'll kill you with a kiss So be careful when you're holding one 'Cause a girl is a gun, yeah (It's a little word of advice) She's cold and she's hot She's fun but she's not some play thing two dollar pistol Say the right thing she'll go off with a bang But be careful cause she kicks a little Hold her just right don't let her down You're gonna get hurt if you mess around A girl is a gun She's harder to handle than you think, son You feel safe when you're with her Think twice before you pull the trigger (think twice) She feels good in your hand from the first little spark But guns shoot bullets and bullets break hearts Heartbreak's a bitch She'll kill you with a kiss So be careful when you're holding one 'Cause a girl (a girl) is a gun (a girl is a gun) Yeah, a girl is a gun She's harder to handle than you think, son You feel safe when you're with her Think twice before you pull the trigger She feels good in your hand from the first little spark But guns shoot bullets and bullets break hearts Heartbreak's a bitch She'll kill you with a kiss So be careful when you're holding one (be careful when you're holding one) 'Cause a girl ('cause a girl) is a gun ('cause a girl is a gun) Yeah, a girl ('cause a girl) is a gun ('cause a girl is a gun) Look it out ('Cause a girl is a gun) ('Cause a girl) ('Cause a girl is a gun)

I can hardly bare the sight of lipstick On the cigarettes there in the ashtray Lyin' cold the way you left them But at least your lips caressed them while you packed And a lip print on a half-filled cup of coffee That you poured and didn't drink But at least you thought you wanted it That's so much more than I can say for me It's been a good year for the roses Many blooms still linger there The lawn could stand another mowin' Funny, I don't even care When you turned and walked away And as the door behind you closes The only thing I know to say It's been a good year for the roses After three full years of marriage It's the first time that you haven't made the bed I guess the reason we're not talkin' There's so little left to say, we haven't said While a million thoughts go racin' through my mind I find I haven't spoke a word And from the bedroom those familiar sounds Of our one baby's cryin' goes unheard But what a good year for the roses Many blooms still linger there The lawn could stand another mowin' Funny, I don't even care When you turned and walked away And as the door behind you closes The only thing I know to say It's been a good year for the roses
