THE GUNS OF TREADWELL ARE HIDDEN INSIDE OF EACH HOUSE AND HOME ALONG THE RIVERSIDE... AND I CAN'T SEE WHY YOU FEEL YOU'VE GOT TO COMPLAIN ~ ALL THAT IS IS AS IT WAS AND IT WILL ALWAYS REMAIN
SOMETHING'S BEEN TEMPTING OUR CHILDREN
SOMETHING BEYOND OUR CONTROL
AND AS WE WATCH IN MUTED AWE ~ THEY SILENTLY PATROL
THE GUNS OF TREADWELL ARE IN YOUR MOUTHS
AND YOU WANT TO TALK BUT YOU CAN'T SPEAK OUT
TAKE A SWIG AND ANOTHER TOKE ~ WATCH YOUR FEAR GO UP IN SMOKE
SUCK ON THE BARREL OF A LONG NECKED GUN
STROKE THE TRIGGER TILL A BULLET COMES

LITTLE SISTER'S GOT YOU IN HER SIGHT
SHE'LL LET YOU LIVE ~ IF YOU DON'T DIE TONIGHT
THE GUNS OF TREADWELL ARE IN YOUR MOUTHS

TAKE A SWIG AND ANOTHER TOKE ~ WATCH YOUR FEAR GO UP IN SMOKE
SUCK ON THE BARREL OF A LONG NECKED GUN
STROKE THE TRIGGER TILL A BULLET COMES
JUST WHEN YOU THINK THIS IS THE END
IT'S NOT THE END
TILL YOU SUCK ON THE BARREL OF A LONG NECKED GUN
TONIGHT'S THE NIGHT AND THE BLOOD MUST RUN
This is a song of complacency and how I feel about parents and their loaded guns and what they can do with them.
