Countdown lyrics

Never wanna rest
When there’s a bounty on my desk
Find that my ‘tention gets arrested by that
Poster in my mind
I got a fugitive to find
Bearin’ my canines, knowin’ that later I
Will have won
The countdown
The countdown
Has begun

VERSE 1:
Tracin’ blood through the mud, I can smell his fear
Wounded prey ain’t hard to track
“Life was hard behind bars,” said the shakin’ deer
“And I ain’t goin’ back!”
Tossed a pistol, made it crystal clear what’s next:
Ten paces or the iron cuffs
Your last chance to dance is layin’ at your feet
All you have to do is pick it up!
Ha!

CHORUS:
Time’s in my control
You won’t see the light of day
So show me what you got
Take your best shot
Fire away
BRIDGE 1:
Seems the next to hang’s
Gonna be an entire gang
This event will end with a bang like dy-na-
Might’ve had a chance
But I made physics look askance
Big iron romance, they’n I go an’ dance
Five to one
They go down
They go down
Like the sun

VERSE 2:
Chase you down like the sound of a sizzling spark
On a trail of TNT
Got your pals, all corralled, just for a lark
No one left but you ‘n me
And the tick-tock of my flintlock’s hangfire
Lights your lifespan like a powder trail
Had a little fun, thought you could run from me…
Gonna tell you, looks like you failed
Aw…

CHORUS:
Time’s in my control
And you know what people say
So show me what you got
Take your best shot
Fire away
BRIDGE 2:
Time to make amends
I got a client wants revenge
Jailbird had killed his former friend and the law
Let the bird fly free
Black-hearted murder up a tree
So he comes to me cause I’m reputedly
Number one
By sundown
By sundown
I’ll be done...

VERSE 3:
There’s a notch, on her watch, for each man she’s killed
I think it’s cute she still has room
She’s the c*ck of the walk at her prison guild
Chick’s about to meet her doom
Gotta hand it to the bandit, she can crow real loud
But every swan has a final song
Might be a canary fairly soon I fear
‘Cause her lifespan ain’t lookin’ long!
Hah~!

CHORUS:
Time’s in my control
So’s the barrel of this gun
So show me what you got
Take your best shot
Now I’ve won
