Bombs and money and a death wish
I don't need your inspiration
I love you honey, but you're bound to vanish
In some fiery desperation
Slide down
You’re sliding down a flagpole
To the devil in hell
Some kinda gloryhound
Who loves those demagogue hucksters
And their wishing wells
I'm seein' blood-red letters on black armbands
I won't hide from the mobs’ derision
Feeding hollow-point bullets to a hungry man
You got him prayin' for the cataclysm
Another gloryhound
You smuggle guns and bibles in a satellite dish
Can't stop you at the customs station
Beware the full-metal hook inside the miracle fish
A neo-gospel for the hungry nations
Strap down
Secure the weekend warrior
To his T.V. seat
Some kinda gloryhound
A flack-jacket yuppie in a camouflage jeep
He's a gloryhound
Some kinda gloryhound
