I keep a weather eye on the horizon,
my back to the wall

I like to know who's coming through the door,
that's all
It's the old army training kicking in

I'm not complaining, it's the world we live in

Blarney and Malarkey, they're a devious firm

They'll take you to the cleaners or let you burn

The help is breaking dishes in the kitchen thanks a lot

We hired the worst dishwasher this place ever got

Come in below the radar, they want to spoil our fun

In the meantime I'm cleaning my gun

Remember it got so cold ice froze up the tank

We lit a fire beneath her just so she would crank

I keep a weather eye on the horizon,
tap the stormglass now and then
I've got a case of Old Damnation for
when you get here, my friend

We can have ourselves a party before they come

In the meantime I'm my cleaning gun

We had women and a mirror ball, we had a dee jay

Used to eat pretty much all that came his way

Ever since the goons came in and took apart the place

I keep a tyre iron in the corner, just in case

I gave you a magic bullet on a little chain

To keep you safe from the chilly winds and out of the rain
We're gonna might need bullets should we get stuck

Any which way, we're going to need a little luck

You can still get gas in Heaven, and a drink in Kingdom Come

In the meantime I'm cleaning my gun
