Lyrics



Used to have a raygun

Written by: Ben Sures

Used to have a raygun, it was good for everything
Never had to deal with problems, Like other human beings

It was no ordinary Raygun, didn't just shoot to kill
It could change reality, and even bend wills

I really loved my Raygun, I really really really did

say I wanted you to like me, or forget what I just said
Dial up the setting, and point it at your head


It overpowered embarrassment, made mean people dumb
even vaporized traffic, the whole world was more fun

But Something happened to my raygun , commenced to acting up
Wouldn't finish what it started, I think the trigger got stuck


Then I had to be careful, what I said and what I did
There were no easy solutions, no more point shoot and fix

Now I'm stuck here on this planet, I can barely breathe the air
Wish I still had my raygun, I'd blast my way off of here


I was gonna build a death ray, I just lost heart
I don't have a laboratory, its hard to find parts

Its hard to find anything ,its hard to get along
Hard to make friends, its hard to belong
