Stubborn As A Gun

Please to please me
if you could just confess
I could be compassionate
to a man who admitted his flaws at best

Somebody ought to point you
in a new direction
This is the way
to the blue connection
You're stubborn as a gun
I'm stubborn as a gun


So meet me in the darkroom
developing the negatives
searching for the smallest prints
of sabotage or even innocence

Somebody ought to point me
in a new direction
This is the way
to the blue connection
I'm stubborn as a gun
You're stubborn as a gun


So here we are pressed to the
ground listening for that terrible sound
of a runaway train like a smoking gun
barrel down and nobody runs

Somebody ought to point me
in a new direction
This is the way
to the blue connection
I'm stubborn as a gun
You're stubborn as a gun
I'm stubborn as a gun
here she comes
