Who Am I Songtext
Who am I
To tell you what to do
To see you all the way through
Or to just hang up on you?
Who am I
To take the fire away
Help you through another day
Or say you can′t stay?
Who am I
To say what you're doing is wrong
To sing another song
Or say you′re too far gone?
Who am I
To not look you in the eye
Or not tell you why?
Not to tell you why
Yeah, I know who you are
You're the man with the gun
There's a playground in your head
And your hand is a barrel of fun
And the big noise tells you
You must do
What must be done?
Who am I
To not show you around
Or help you paint this town
From red to brown?
Who am I
To get you up in the saddle
Or out of the cradle
Or land you back in Seattle?
Who am I
To shoot it all apart?
Well, now let′s all start
From the beginning again
Yeah, I know who you are
You′re the man with the gun
There's a shadow in your head
And your hand is the son of a gun
And the big noise tells you
You must do
What must be done
To tell you what to do
To see you all the way through
Or to just hang up on you?
Who am I
To take the fire away
Help you through another day
Or say you can′t stay?
Who am I
To say what you're doing is wrong
To sing another song
Or say you′re too far gone?
Who am I
To not look you in the eye
Or not tell you why?
Not to tell you why
Yeah, I know who you are
You're the man with the gun
There's a playground in your head
And your hand is a barrel of fun
And the big noise tells you
You must do
What must be done?
Who am I
To not show you around
Or help you paint this town
From red to brown?
Who am I
To get you up in the saddle
Or out of the cradle
Or land you back in Seattle?
Who am I
To shoot it all apart?
Well, now let′s all start
From the beginning again
Yeah, I know who you are
You′re the man with the gun
There's a shadow in your head
And your hand is the son of a gun
And the big noise tells you
You must do
What must be done
