"Guards"


We're kids on the corner, we're sure as hell

That daddy's got a gun that he cannot draw

We hear you're carrying yours as well

We're calling, we're calling, we're calling, we're calling


Christians and cutters we all confess

On twenty-one channels, each day one less

You can't keep shooting a camera test

We're calling, we're calling, we're calling, we're calling


Some guards call it the forward slash

Others can't talk with a knife in their back

We're call call calling

We're call call calling

We're calling


Got a king but he's selling his robe

A kid kissed him and he turned into a toad

The queen screamed but it came out a croak

And if you listen you can still hear them singing


Your dog's on the phone, are you out or in?

Another day dead is a week for him

You can't keep huffing the oxygen

We're calling, we're calling, we're calling, we're calling


Some guards call it a forward slash

Others can't talk with a knife in their back

We're call call calling

We're call call calling

We're calling you
