FASTER ON THE DRAW

((( Man # 6 )))

The girl moved in across the street
I made sure I was first to meet her
The guys consumed with jealousy
They wondered why was she with me

I told them they should have been
Faster on the draw
She fell in love with
The first guy that she saw

And now we're both together
And there's nothing you can do
'Cause she fell in love me
And not with you

((( Other Guys )))

We think that guy should be replaced
He has the most unfair home base
Location we could never beat
The girl moved in across the street

He told us we should have been
Faster on the draw
We never had a chance
To see what he saw

And now they're both together
And their love is under trust
Seems she fell in love with him
And not with us

(under trust)
(faster on the draw)

((( Bad Guy )))

I met her second
I want her more
I was rejected twice before
If I can't have her
No one can
I'll shoot her faster than Superman

You told me I should have been
Faster on the draw
I drew so fast
You didn't see what she saw

A bullet coming after her
The path becomes her head
Her hand is torn away from yours
You see her fall down dead

You ask me why did I kill her
And let you live instead
I tell you that you'd suffer more
This way than scattered red

You ask me if I'm sorry
That my jealousy became
An act of senseless violence
But the truth is very plain

I'm mad she fell in love with
The first guy that she saw
So I killed her and let you live
To prove that I was
Faster on the draw

(under trust)
(faster on the draw)
(I hope the girl goes to Heaven)
