(Strummer/Jones)

Tommy gun – you ain’t happy ‘less you got one
Tommy gun – ain’t gonna shoot the place up just for fun
Maybe he wants to die for his country
Maybe he wants to kill for his country
Whatever he wants, he’s gonna get it

Tommy gun – you better strip IT down for a customs run
Tommy gun – waiting at the airport ‘till Kingdom Come
An’ we can watch you make it on the nine o’clock news
Standing there in Palestine lighting the fuse
Whatever you want, you’re gonna get it

Tommy gun
Tommy gun

Tommy gun – a-you’ll be dead when your war is won
Tommy gun – but did you have to gun down everyone?
I can see its kill or be killed
A nation of destiny has got to be fulfilled
Whatever you want, you’re gonna get it

Tommy gun – a-you can be hero in an age of none
Tommy gun – I’m cutting out your picture from page one
I’m gonna a get a jacket just like yours
An’ give my false support to your cause
Whatever you want, you’re gonna get it
All right!

Okay, so let’s agree about the price
An’ make it one jet airliner for ten prisoners

Boats and tanks and planes, it's your game
Kings and Queens and Generals, LEARNING your name
I'VE see all the innocents, the human sacrifice
And if death comes so cheap, then the same goes for life
