Shot Down

[EvelBist]

put her in gear jonny
don't you dare slow down
long as she feels good jonny
you won't never get shot down

what is it they say that you're haulin - right or wrong
you've got the fastest car around
going for broke - slide inside the curves
how she screams - like the magic of love unbound

put it in first jonny
she wants to start out slow
give her just what she wants jonny
you won't never get shot down

<refrain>
in your paradise or hell
why deny the mystery tale?
of pretty creatures all in rows
all are lies but one - why not have some fun?

she won't stay jonny
not as long as there's open road
look at me jonny
one more son of a gun shot down

[likewised]

I woke up on Saturday with a hammer ringing through my skull.
I spent too many mornings, tears sweetening my coffee, I was bound to get bitter as hell.

There’s a man in the back room, the nicest you’ve met, slowly losing his mind,
stringing the same story of his one glory for the sixteenth time and

he goes,

“I remember that day well. They danced my name across every roof in town.
When you get there, hold tight, kid - the next day, they’ll shoot it down.”

Nowadays, they got me up before the sun. My back is tired, my shoes are worn.
I spent so many mornings, my head in my coffee - I got damn bitter in no time at all.

“I remember that day well. They danced my name across every roof in town.
When you get there, hold tight, kid, because the next day they’ll shoot it down.”

You're an ace and a fighter now
You can see them coming over now
It's the fight that keeps you in
Here to let them know you're in to win

When you let your guard down...
That's your ego gettin' shot down

Hesitate when you lose a few
You studied all those hunky dudes
Your pickup lines become more crude
It seemed easy in high school?

When you let your guard down...
That's your ego gettin' shot down

Everyone is watching you
Commenting on your every move
You swear that your game is smooth
It's hard to handle the truth

When you let your guard down
That's your ego gettin' shot

When you let your guard down
That's your ego gettin' shot

When you let your guard down
That's your ego gettin' shot down

Shot Down
Cookie Blue

Like the ghost of an alien I keep walking around
A restless spirit, inside and out
Can't ever be plucked but my seed has been sown
Forever untouched I wander alone

Shot down in the middle of the night
I ain't the one to make it alright
Shot down in the middle of the street
I knew there would be trouble when we did meet

I'm a rat in a trap, I don't know how to react
For going mad an dying wasn't part of the contract

Shot down in the middle of the night
I was gonna get away and leave everything behind
Shot down in the middle of your heart
You never let me in, I was torn apart

Waiting all my life
For a chance that never came
Wasting all my time
After all I'm still the same

(so-called solo)

Shot down in the middle of the night
I never was a dreamer but I got so high
Shot down in the middle of the night
Never gonna be alright

Like a poltergeist I keep walking around
A restless spirit, inside and out
Can't ever be plucked but my seed has been sown
Forever untouched I wander alone

Shot Down by Berkeley Social Scene
lyrics by Ken Mahru


Stand up, let’s get going
the moon is rising in the sky
It’s time to go, I think you know it
better say your goodbyes

there’s a dark cloud in the sky
Can you feel the turning tide

Shut up, no time for talking
I’m worried we might die
I’m worried we might die
I’m worried we might die
Don’t be slow, you just might blow it
clear the tears from your eyes

there’s a dark cloud in the sky
Can you feel the turning tide

Calm down, just catch your breath
You won’t believe your eyes

If you’re shot down before you know it
Get back up before you blow it
If you’re feeling pain just show it
It'll be gone before you know it

Calm down and catch your breath
You won’t believe your eyes

Calm Down

Shot Down
by WreckdoM

I hate these cans.
These cans must pay.
They's laughin' at me,
Clogging up the scenery.
Shoot'em Down,
Shoot'em Down
With my trusty red rider,
I prove that I'm a member
Of the BB Gun Rifle Association
Of The United States of America
Shoot'em Down,
Shoot'em Down
One pump, one shot, one kill!
One pump, one shot, one kill!
Ring the bell,
Another can in hell,
Fire your BB at will, everybody,
Fire your BB at will
We want world peace.
We want a living wage.
We wanna close Guantanamo,
And we hate these cans.
Shoot'em Down,
Shoot'em Down
My BB gun is a part of me.
I will not shoot at living things.
I will not shoot inside the house.
I will not rest til every can is dead.
Shoot'em Down,
Shoot'em Down
One pump, one shot, one kill!
One pump, one shot, one kill!
Ring the bell,
Another can in hell,
Fire your BB at will, everybody,
Fire your BB at will

Flying over war-torn France, “For Your Eyes Only” mission -
Bi-planes, 2 o’clock, engage with military precision, the
Spit of dual machine guns, lighting up my angry face, they’ll
Rue the day they picked a fight with this Brit flying ace - but

Suddenly, Iron Eagle swoops, comes screeching through the clouds, no

Time to bank, Red Baron sends me crashing to the ground, I’ve been
C#m E A F# C#m E A F#
Shot down shot down, shot down, shot down

Ease out of the wreckage, find I’m trapped behind the lines, I
Creep past mangled bodies, burnt-out tanks, half-buried mines, then

Land at bombed-out village, locals huddled in cafe, I
See a lovely mademoiselle, in mangled French I say
“Suis-je au ciel? je vois les étoiles dans tes yeux!”. She
shoots me down, Richthofen don’t have anything on her

Shot down x 4

It’s just so embarrassing, don’t know what I’m to do -
First World War of Sexes, I’m a P.O.W.

The Kraken Lives
Shot Down (A tribute to Biggs Darklighter)
Django-Lead vocals
glennny-other stuff

We grew up on Tatooine
Racing our Sky-Hoppers in the Beggars Canyon
Tagging womp-rats, sandsurfing…
Do you still have your hologram of Kandji?

I’ve got Biggs on my left
I’ve got Antilles on my right
We’re down in the trench
We’re almost there
We’re gonna blow up the Death Star tonight

Wedge took a hit
Biggs got shot down
I would’ve been shot down too
if Han hadn’t come to my rescue.
Vader is spinning around and around

I remember you whenever I work on my ship.
You always told me, I should learn every last detail.
I wish we could go sandsurfing again
, but now you’re just another Martyr of Yavin.

I’ve got Biggs on my left
I’ve got Antilles on my right
We’re down in the trench
We’re almost there
We’re gonna blow up the Death Star tonight

Wedge took a hit
Biggs got shot down
I would’ve been shot down too
if Han hadn’t come to my rescue.
Vader is spinning around and around
