Honestly cannot believe you think this song is about the right to bear arms! Really you don't get the irony? Great song, but man you are a fool - too many like you = a fool like Bush running a murderous terrorising superpower like your stupid "sweet home" America..

P0lise: As I said this is my interpretation of the video. How am I supposed to know what the artist meant unless he tells me himself. I feel he is trying to make some sort of political point with comedy and irony. I suspect I understand much of his humor but might have taken it in a different direction.

user
P0lise: I would like to know what he meant just out of curiosity, however I am not going to take the word of someone that could be a shill with a political agenda. So unless I hear from the artist himself (and can verify positively that its really him) I remain skeptical and open-minded; unlike some people.

P0lise: I really like Mark Knopfler, and Dire Straits, though I am not a groupie. I have my own mind and do not want to be led around like a sheep or follow them blindly like a cult.

I wasn't talking to you or about that, I was replying to 'mejicojohn' who said the U.S. should have launched nuclear weapons on Iraq.

Lyrics:
I tell you what

They don't mess with me, I'm a wild man, son
I got me my very own anti-tank gun
I got a jack rabbit with it, guess he was a mean one
Yeah, I've always been a sportsman

Now, there wasn't much left when I got to him
Them big old shells didn't just go through him
Just lumps of fur and that was it
Guess you could say he sure took a hit, alright

Yeah, you want to see my fire power, see my collection
'Cause that's my thing, man, perfection
Now I'm talking power in the barrel of a gun
I'll blow anything I want to, kingdom come

Ba ba boom
Ba ba ba ba bomb
And I'll blow anything I want
To kingdom come

Yeah, all you got to do is sqeeze on the trigger
And a little bitty human get a whole lot bigger
Cause there's a time for talking and a time to shoot them down
And this mama-jama [unverified] don't pussy foot around, alright

Yeah, let them laugh, let them say we're strange
Me and my buddies on the rifle range
But you won't be laughing when it hits the fan
You're going to want to be a survivor, man

Yeah, you got to see my fire power, see my collection
'Cause that's my thing, man, perfection
Now, I'm talking power in the barrel of a gun
I'll blow anything I want to kingdom come

Ba ba boom
Ba ba ba ba bomb
And I'll blow anything I want
To kingdom come

Ba ba ba ba boom
I say we ought to drop the bomb
Yes, and I'll blow anything I want
To kingdom come
