Billy's got a gun, he's on the run

Confusion in his mind, the blind leads the blind

Yeah, Billy's got a gun, he's gonna shoot you 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, yeah) 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, and 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 yeah, 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 hopeless) As a bird with a broken wing

Like a sheep in a lions 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 lightening was too late

As the rain came down on the crimson ground 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?

(Oh yeah, yeah, Billy's on the run) (Aah, you better run)

Never give 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)

As a sheep in the lions den

(Oh, Billy)

Gonna fall but you won't know when

(Yeah, the heat is on, he's gonna get you) Bang, bang
