Hunter
The King and the Clown Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

They call me the hunter, that's my name
A pretty woman like you, is my only game
I bought me a love gun, just the other day
And I aim to aim it your way
Ain't no use to hide, ain't no use to run
'Cause I've got you in the sights of my love gun

The first time I saw you, standing on the street
I says to myself, woo, ain't she sweet
I've got my love gun loaded, with hugs and kisses
And when I pull the trigger, there will be no misses
Ain't no need to hide, ain't no use to run
'Cause I've got you in the sights of my love gun

Ain't no use to hide, ain't no use to run
'Cause I've got you in the sights of my love gun





I'm the big bad hunter baby
How can I miss when I've got dead aim

Overall Meaning

The song "Hunter" by The King and the Clown features lyrics that are an embodiment of a classic pick-up line, with the singer taking the role of a hunter chasing after their prey.

The lyrics describe the singer's pursuit of a "pretty woman" who has caught his eye. He compares his love to hunting, and likens his love gun to a weapon that he intends to direct towards his target. He is determined to make this woman the object of his affection by using all the tricks and techniques he has at his disposal.


The lyrics also suggest that there is no escape for the woman he is chasing, as he has her "in the sights of my love gun." He implies that he will not give up until he has captured his prey, and that no matter how hard she might try to avoid him, he will always find her eventually. The charm and almost playful nature of the lyrics in "Hunter" are a classic example of how simple, fun lyrics can define a popular song.
