Just One Shot Songtext
von Ramallah

Just one shot baby
Just one shot
Dear GOD one shot
Just one...
And then there′ll be no more:

Just one shot baby
Just one shot
Dear GOD one shot
Just one...
And then there'll be no more:

Just...
One...
Shot.
And then there′ll be no more...


You are young.
Life's been kind to you.
But take it from me, child,
You
Will
Learn...

Pick this shit up...
There's a hole in the world like a great black pit
And the vermin of the world inhabit it
And I couldn′t take another fucking second of it
So I got high
JUST ONE SHOT

At the top of the hole sit the privileged few
Making mock of the vermin in the lower zoo
And I was one of the animals under the few
So I found my own way to fly...

And life is the school in which we learn that
Time is the fire in which we burn
So I pulled a full-on Thich Quang Duc
And lit myself up WATCH ME BURN

Bang bang, shoot shoot
BANG BANG SHOOT SHOOT
Goes to the gun to your neck goes the spike to your arm
With just one shot there′s no more

Here's a little ditty for the fiends like me...


And you can booze to it
And dead-end cruise to it
You can waste another night
Be born-to-lose to it

And you can brawl to it
You′re pride can fall to it
On your hands and knees alone at night you crawl to it

I
Knelt at the dope-spot
Prayed to the dope-man
Took the communion that was offered and it was "Dope, man..."

Knelt at the dope-spot
Prayed to the dope-man
I'm on my knees the way you like it
Take my soul, man...

Pick this back up...
What I gotta do to find a better way to make it through
There′s gotta be a better way than living like this
I was waiting for a better way and waiting for a better day
I waited so long that I lost my faith
I was waiting I was hating I was pleading I was bleeding
I was PRAYING FOR SOMETHING THAT NEVER CAME
I prayed for something that never came
So bang bang and no more:

No one could save me and the pain drove me out of my mind
Cuz the hole in my soul was a great black pit
And I just had to find something to fill it with
Cuz it was either that or slit my fucking wrists!
With just one shot there's no more:

Pull the gizzy′s out ya' arms and sing along with me

I
Knelt at the dope-spot
Prayed to the dope-man
Took the communion that was offered and it was "Dope, man..."

Knelt at the dope-spot
Prayed to the dope-man
I'm on my knees the way you like it
Take my soul, man...

Now back to the song at hand...
Yeah you can fly to it
And climb so high to it
And in a Dunkin′ Donuts bathroom
You can DIE TO IT
HA HA!
And you can burn to it
Yeah you can burn to it
Burn
Burn
And then there will be no more

BREATHE
Just...
BREATHE
One...
BREATHE
Shot...
BREATHE
And then there′ll be no more...

And I was waiting
FOR SO LONG
And I was hating
FOR SO LONG
And I was praying for something that never came.

And I was pleading
FOR SO LONG
And I was bleeding
FOR SO LONG
And I was fiending for something that never came.

But with just one shot baby
Just one shot
Dear GOD one shot
(Something that never came)
JUST ONE

With just one shot baby
Just one shot
Dear GOD one shot
I FINALLY FOUND WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR...
