Lyrics for Start The Shooting as interpreted by CKwillburn

Start The Shooting Lyrics
Hey boys look where we are
This town ain't big enough for the both of us
so get ready to run
I guess this goes to show just how little you really know about the way that things are

I notice everything
I heard every single rumor that you've spread today
You're never gonna change
Let's set this record straight
I know all your dirty secrets that you kept from me
This conversation is over

Watch your step
This place* can chew you up and spit you out
So pardon me, but you shouldn't be so proud

You're all the same
You think that everyone around you cares about what you think
No one knows your name
It's about that time
take everyone you know and get as far across my state line as you possibly can

I notice everything
I heard every single rumor that you've spread today
You're never gonna change
Let's set this record straight
I know all your dirty secrets that you kept from me
This conversation is over

Watch your step
This place* can chew you up and spit you out
So pardon me, but you shouldn't be so proud

Will they miss me when I'm gone?
Will this time be for too long?
Wait 'til then, and see if time brings change



(in the book its "place" but in the song is "town")

jeremy talks about his success AND the people that are jealous because they are successful and they are stuck in the little town.

that opening "HEY BOYS! LOOK WHERE WE ARE!" is pretty moving to me.


Makes me think of them like completely shipwrecked and scattered about the shore, then when they awake and recollect...HEY BOYSS

"It's about that time, take everyone you know and get as far across my state line as you possibly can" = Sickest part in the song. Damn the vocals are awesome in this song.

Its about proving others wrong...People who may have doubted them in the past.
"Watch your step, this Hell (or town) can chew you up and spit you out" = Giving fair warning to others that success isnt as easy as you may think.

I loveeee ADTR!
