Shot Down
US Bombs Lyrics

The US Bombs's song Shot Down is a violent, angry, and aggressive song that depicts a man who's fueled with rage and resent because his partner cheated on him with his close friend. The opening lyrics, "Got a pistol and I'm gonna use it, I shot two shot down", introduce the theme of the song as an act of revenge taken out on the couple. The singer is shown as having the sense of justice in his hand, as if the law was in his control. He takes it upon himself to punish the two individuals, who he believes should have never cheated him.

The lyrics use explicit language to describe the situation, with the guilt "dripping" down the woman's legs and calling the man a "pathetic prick" and the woman "a smelly cunt." The imagery in this song is graphic and disturbing, as it includes references to two "midgets" having sex in "slime." The singer revels in the gruesome aftermath, boasting about the "fair for the carnival" and the "blown-off" faces of his victims, as their "bodies lay in the mud."

Shot Down is a brutal and violent song that explores themes of jealousy, betrayal, and revenge. It depicts a world where there is no justice, and individuals take the law into their own hands. The song explores the human psyche's darker side, where anger and hate consume an individual's thoughts and actions. The song's message is a warning of what can happen when emotions are not kept in check and allowed to control an individual's actions.
