The Man With The Gun (Willemer 2022)

The man with the gun stops the bus in the middle of nowhere.
The man with the gun makes the people leave the bus.
The man with the gun shouts: „Valuables on the floor“
The man with the gun makes it clear he doesn’t joke.
Outside the bus all the people lay down their items
Outside the bus he pours petrol over the bus.

    No debate with the man with the gun.
   They all fear the man with the rifle
    Noone loves a gun

The man with the gun shouts: „The journey now continues“
The man with the gun shouts: „Now get all on board.“
The man with the gun stops a man with a hat from boarding.
The man with the gun says: „Take your belongings and go.
The man with the hat can go where he wants to go.
The man with the hat and his relatives are free.“

    No debate with the man with the gun.
   They all fear the man with the rifle
    Noone loves a gun

The man with the hat looks upon the man with the rifle.
The man with the hat says „They’re all brothers and sisters of mine“.
The man with the gun says smiling: „I will keep my promise“.
The man with the gun leaves the scene and walks away.
Now the passengers stare at the man with the hat on.
Now the passengers ask what a gunman that was.


 That man once was a refugee and lived with us in our house.
 But the mob were after him and the government expelled him from the land.

    No debate with the man with the gun.
   They all fear the man with the rifle
    Noone loves a gun

The man with the gun is forever stuck in a dead end.
The man with the gun lost the game long before it began.
