The Radio Dept. takes aim at the gun lobby with “Swedish Guns”

the radio dept

The Radio Dept. is not taking it anymore.The world is full of violent attacks and terrorist attacks. Instead of making war, the Radio Dept. is making art. Anti-violence art in the way the Swedes know how to deliver. The reggae tinged beat from “Swedish Guns” is a laid back track taken off of the upcoming album via Labrador, “Running Out Of Love ,” out October 21. Read the lyrics to “Swedish Guns” below.

What’s that in the air?
The Swedish guns
And what is that right there?
That’s Swedish guns
Let’s have a second look
It’s Swedish guns
Must be by the book
It’s Swedish guns

And guess what came to town
The Swedish guns
And guess what burned it down
The Swedish guns
And every life they took
With Swedish guns
Now everywhere you look
It’s Swedish guns

When you want something done
When you want something done
Just take me by the hand
We’ll make them understand

If you want something done
Get Swedish guns
Take care of someone
Get Swedish guns
You need a helping hand?
Get Swedish guns
Secure a piece of land
Get Swedish guns

They should turn around
The Swedish guns
And force us to the ground
With Swedish guns
Cause who can be to blame
For Swedish guns?
A clue, it’s in the name
A diabolic shame

When you want something done
When you want something done
Just take me by the hand
We’ll make them understand
