lyrics

Love is simple.
Love is blind.
Love will find you if you run.
Love is easy.
Love is fun.
Look out baby. Love's got a gun.

They say the most common American motive for murder is money
and gloss over the baby in the tummy or the carriage
as a chip in a game of support and blame, but it's funny,
if you follow the narrative--
the most common relationship for killer and killed
is burnt out old flame with the same name
one could say the most common American motive for murder
is marriage

Love is simple.
Love is blind.
Love will find you if you run.
Love is easy.
Love is fun.
Look out baby. Love's got a gun.

The most common method of marriage is religion
Easy to make promises to gods you don't believe in
To have, hold in sickness. To honor an protect,
Just until death.

Love is simple.
Love is blind.
Love will find you if you run.
Love is easy.
Love is fun.
Look out baby. Love's got a gun.



Obviously this is intended as a protest song against relationship violence, and a rebuke to the hundreds of formulaic love songs that ignore it, and advocate for love at all costs, let alone those that seem to fit the pattern. In case that wasn't all obvious enough.
