Pass the Shotgun (Please)

Written by Bootsauce, from Bootsauce, 1995



Yeah!
All right!

There's a very big hole in your memory
You were living on borrowed time
If there ever was any kind of doubt in your head
I said you lost it when you lost your mind

Pass the shotgun, please
Would you pass the shotgun, please
Pass the shotgun, please
Would you pass the shotgun, please

(Sample A: I'm gonna take a long fuckin' walk.)

There's a problem with your sense of humour
I can't find it where it used to be
That's a funny way of losing a tumour
Know a doctor called lobotomy

Pass the shotgun, please
Would you pass the shotgun, please
Pass the shotgun, please
Would you pass the shotgun, please

(Sample B: They only find one shot.)
(Sample C: Oh shit! Oh shit, oh my god!)


There's a very big hole in your memory
You were renting out space in your soul
Said that now you've made a forced eviction
Said you lost out when you lost control

Pass the shotgun, please
Would you pass the shotgun, please
Pass the shotgun, please
Would you pass the shotgun, please

(Sample D: Get out of here, for once in your life, ??????)
(Sample B)(Sample C)(Sample B)
(Sample E: You cannot be ??????)
(Sample C) x 3



Notes:

  • Various audio samples throughout this song are sourced from real shotgun blasts. The song opens and closes with the sound of a goat or sheep, one that unfortunately may be succumbing to some sort of illness and needing to be put down with - of course - a shotgun.
  • Sample A is a piece of dialogue from HBO TV series The Larry Sanders Show, episode S2E17, "The Grand Opening". The line is uttered by the character Hank Kingsley (played by Jeffrey Tambor).
