Bernie LaBarge: Gun shy [lyrics]

Bernie LaBarge

Gun shy

I've been lookin' for security

But I'm never gonna find it here

The thought of mating in captivity

Makes me want to disappear

I don't want to make a compromise

I don't want to wear a wedding ring

What's the matter with the way it is

We don't have to change a thing

It's not that I don't want you

Or I don't need you

But I just realized I'm gun shy

Gun shy, baby

I'm gun shy

Gun shy

I don't want to be a married man

I don't want to get on bended knees

We've done allright without the minister

Spare me the legalites

Don't you know that it's a fact of life

That we're living in the modern age

Why take the magic from our love affair

By living in a gilded cage

It's not that I don't want you

Or I don't need you

But I just realized I'm gun shy

Gun shy, baby

I'm gun shy

Gun shy
