Shadow people, what's in their head?

In the car next to you, when the light turns red

      A minorAm
That one's thinking of great art
A minorAm
And eloquent words
A minorAm
That one's strapped on a gun
A minorAm
And joined up with the herd
A minorAm
That one's saving up water
A minorAm
Got some food stored away
A minorAm              G+G      FF G+G
For the war that is coming on the judgment day.

He's a 21st Century man

And he's scary as hell
A minorAm
