[Verse 1]
A human heart goes out tonight
Yes, a red-hot love on a red stoplight
I see a scene, so cold it echoes in blue
Oh, those twisting tongues, they are after you

[Pre-Chorus]
Wop bop a lu bop, Son, you gotta move up
Flip flop fly
Lawdy Miss Clawdy
Oh, what a story, dreams to buy
Don't need a knife to violate my life
It's all so insane

[Chorus]
When the other man has none
You don't need a gun
Yes, a Russian roulette, no fun
I don't need a gun
I just need someone
I don't need a gun

[Verse 2]
Blood red lights a domination street
Yeah, I just need your love and to feel that heat
Yeah, or you can drive me through
That red stoplight
With a whiplash smile, Woahhh!
[Pre-Chorus]
Wop bop a lu bop, yeah, you gotta move up
Flip flop fly
Lawdy Miss Clawdy
Oooh, what a story, all to buy
Don't need a knife to violate my life
It's all insane

[Chorus]
I say when the other man has none
You don't need a gun
A Russian roulette, no fun
You don't need a gun, yeah, just need someone
I won't need a gun
Oh yeah
Ow!

[Guitar solo]
Yeah, we’re fine, we don’t play

[Bridge]
You will always be crying, yeah
Oh, you will always be dying
Oh, you will always be dying

[Verse 3]
Elvis, a fight, the dying light
Johnnie Ray, he's always crying
Gene Vincent, he cried, "Who slapped John, John, John"
Yes, and me, I'm movin', movin', movin', movin' on
Yeah, to be someone
I don't need a gun
I don't need a gun
I don't need a gun
Ow! Wow! Wow! Oooh!
You will always be crying
