I saw you dance in the flames
But somehow you walked out unscathed
Slip down your way through the minefield
By a foot and slit Achilles’ heels
Kissing curves and time bombs
Blowin your mind without going off
Of nine
You got one life left to go
This time you won’t need to worry at all
Cause this is your surefire shot, don’t miss
Under the gun
But for once on the other side of it
Taking now what you want and it’s yours for the takin
Like a war won without waging
Just when I thought that your luck was spent
You dodge another bullet
Count your blessings
Even those are second guessing
Cause of nine there’s one life left to go
This time you won’t need to worry at all
Cause this is your surefire shot
Don’t miss
Under the gun, but for once on the other side of it
Taking now what you want
It’s your surefire shot
Don’t miss
Under the gun
But for once you’re a force to be reckoned with
Taking now what you want and it’s yours
Knocked down the odds stacked against you
Before you sound off that surrender
Size up the forces against you
Before you drop down to your knees
Believe me
I can say with certainty
Cause this is your surefire shot
Don’t miss
Under the gun
But for once on the other side of it
Taking now what you want
It’s your surefire shot
Don’t miss
Under the gun
But for once you’re a force to be reckoned with
Taking now what you want (believe me)
Taking now what you want, and it’s yours
