She was a ballerina on a subway train
   Stiletto heels and a candy cane
   Looked like a number on a station wall
   Hot on the tail of a social call
  
   I wet my lips I thought I had it made
   Like Valentino with a hand grenade
   I made my move with my libido on
   She circled once and then she dropped the bomb
  
   She got the big guns
   Pointed at my heart
   Bang bang shooting like a firing squad
   Big guns
   Blew me away
   And I went down in flames
  
   I met a sidewalk preacher on a roller skate
   He said he had the key to heaven's gate
   I said: "I'll wait for the movie 'cause I been there before"
   And learned: like is a battle and love is war
  
   She got the big guns
   Pointed at my heart
   Bang bang shooting like a firing squad
   Big guns
   Took me by surprise
   She got my lovin' reachin' for the sky
  
   She got the big guns
   Pointed at my heart
   Bang bang shooting like a firing squad
   Big guns
   Blew me away
   And I went down in flames
  
   I'm doing time as a back seat Romeo
   Play solitaire with my hands in the air
   Another night and no bullets to spare
  
   She got the big guns
   Pointed at my heart
   Bang bang shooting like a firing squad
   Big guns
   Took me by surprise
   She got my lovin' reachin' for the sky
  
   She got the big guns
   Pointed at my heart
   Bang bang shooting like a firing squad
   Big guns
   Blew me away
   And I went down in flames
  
   Big guns (Big guns)
   Big guns, blew me away
   And I went down in flames
  
   Big guns, big guns
   She really, really got the big guns
   She shot me down in flames
