Billy's got a gun, he's on the run Confusion in his mind, the blind leads the blind Oh, billy's got a gun, he's gonna shoot ya down He's got evil in his eyes, got a reason to despise There's danger in the air
Can you feel it in the air There's danger in the air, danger Such a strange emotion Can you feel it in the air
Oh he was locked inside a room without a door His innocence he suffered for In a world of black and white, they were wrong and he was right Just looking for a clue, it's a nightmare come true He's going underground to track that danger down Oh billy, hey why you got that gun?
Can you feel it in the air There's danger in the air, danger Such a strange emotion Can you feel it in the air Oh billy
Never give him an even break Gettin' caught is the chance you take It could be your last mistake You could be so helpless As a bird with a broken wing Like a sheep in a lion's den Gonna fall but you won't know when He's gonna get you
You hear footsteps in the night, see shadows on the wall And the ghostly sound of silence, as the mist begins to fall Then a scream rang out like thunder, but the lightning was too late As the rain came down on the crimson ground It was the hand of fate And a crowd of people gathered round, but billy couldn't wait
Can you feel it in the air There's danger in the air, danger Such a strange emotion Can you feel it in the air? Yeah, billy's on the run
Oh, you better run Never gave him an even break, better run Gettin' caught is the chance you take, you better run It could be your last mistake Yeah billy's got a gun As a bird with a broken wing, oh billy Like a sheep in a lion's den, oh billy Gonna fall but you won't know when, yeah billy's out He's gonna get you
