    Trigger happy

    Got an AK-47, well you know it makes me feel alright
    Got an Uzi by my pillow, helps me sleep a little better at night
    There's no feeling any greater
    Than to shoot first and ask questions later
    Now I'm trigger happy, trigger happy every day (ooh, trigger happy every day)

    Well, you can't take my guns away, I got a constitutional right
    Yeah, I gotta be ready if the commies attack us tonight
    I'll blow their brains out with my Smith and Wesson
    That ought to teach 'em all a darn good lesson
    Now I'm trigger happy, trigger happy every day (ooh, trigger happy every day)

    Oh yeah, I'm trigger, trigger happy (trigger happy, yeah, I'm trigger happy)
    Yes, I'm trigger, trigger happy (trigger happy, yeah, I'm trigger happy)
    (Oh baby, I'm) trigger, trigger happy (trigger happy, yeah, I'm trigger happy)
    Yes, I'm trigger, trigger happy (trigger happy, yeah, I'm trigger happy)
    (Oh, I'm so) trigger, trigger happy (trigger happy, yeah, I'm trigger happy)
    Yes, I'm trigger, trigger happy (trigger happy)
    Better watch out, punk
    Or I'm gonna have to blow you away

    Oh, I accidentally shot Daddy last night in the den (shot daddy in the den)
    I mistook him in the dark for a drug-crazed Nazi again (drug-crazed Nazi again)
    Now why'd you have to get so mad?
    It was just a lousy flesh wound, dad
    You know I'm trigger happy, trigger happy every day (ooh, trigger happy every day)

    Oh, I still haven't figured out the safety on my rifle yet
    Little Fluffy took a round, better take him to the vet
    I filled that kitty cat so full of lead
    We'll have to use him for a pencil instead
    Well, I'm trigger happy, trigger happy every day (ooh, trigger happy every day)

    Oh yeah, I'm trigger, trigger happy (trigger happy, yeah, I'm trigger happy)
    Yes, I'm trigger, trigger happy (trigger happy, yeah, I'm trigger happy)
    (Oh baby, I'm) trigger, trigger happy (trigger happy, yeah, I'm trigger happy)
    Yes, I'm trigger, trigger happy (trigger happy, yeah, I'm trigger happy)
    (Oh, I'm so) trigger, trigger happy (trigger happy, yeah, I'm trigger happy)
    Yes, I'm trigger, trigger happy (trigger happy)
    Better watch out, punk, or I'm gonna have to blow you away

    Come on and grab your ammo
    What have you got to lose?
    We'll all get liquored up
    And shoot at anything that moves

    Got a brand new semi-automatic weapon with a laser sight
    (Shoot to kill now, shoot to kill)
    Oh, I'm prayin' somebody tries to break in here tonight
    (Shoot to kill now, shoot to kill)
    I always keep a Magnum in my trunk
    You better ask yourself, do you feel lucky, punk?
    Because I'm trigger happy, trigger happy every day (ooh, trigger happy every day)

    Oh yeah, I'm trigger, trigger happy (trigger happy, yeah, I'm trigger happy)
    Yes, I'm trigger, trigger happy (trigger happy, yeah, I'm trigger happy)
    (Oh baby, I'm) trigger, trigger happy (trigger happy, yeah, I'm trigger happy)
    Yes, I'm trigger, trigger happy (trigger happy, yeah, I'm trigger happy)
    (Oh, I'm so) trigger, trigger happy (trigger happy, yeah, I'm trigger happy)
    Yes, I'm trigger, trigger happy (trigger happy)

    Better watch out, punk
    Or I'm gonna have to blow you away
    (Watch out or I'll blow you away)
    Better watch out, punk
    Or I'm gonna have to blow you away
    (Watch out or I'll blow you away)
    Better watch out, punk
    Or I'm gonna have to blow you away
    (Watch out or I'll blow you away)
    Better watch out, punk
    Or I'm gonna have to blow you away
    (Watch out or I'll blow you away) Writer/s: Al Yankovic
