Sorry OP, it's not like your chosen profession is filled with brain surgeons and particle physicists that just "couldn't be bothered" with all the paperwork and decided bouncing was the career for them...

I used to to the doors part time in my previous career, I was a Microbiologist.

All the brain surgeons and particle physicists laugh at the thickie microbiologists!

Ok, TWO bright shining stars etc...

Were you working the door of bo-jinglers night club with Knuckles the aerospace design engineer, or was it knuckles the big bloke, with large knuckles, mostly used for smashing into peoples faces as a way of expressing his emotions.

I work the doors and ive done engineering qualifications

What about your colleagues... the fact you're all taking it so well means there must be a reasonable element of truth in it!

I got my aim, i'm ready to go
I hit the target, rite where her heart is
Am a killer, love killer, love killer? "

I enjoy a love ballad as much as the next PHer.

He's a love killer, he intends to shoot her with his "love weapon" Is he just trying to make her love him by shooting her heart like cupid or does he mean to ejaculate on her?

To me, the image is unclear. Do you have any more stanzas?

I'm not a fan - couldn't be I'd never heard of him, but are those lyrics that different to

They call me the Hunter and Lord, that's my name
A pretty woman (girl) like you child are my only game
I bought me a love gun just the other day
Lord, and I aim to aim it your way
Ain't no use to hide
No there ain't no use to run
Cause I got you in the sights of my........
My love gun, my love gun, my love gun
God-dammed!
Booker T. Jones, 1967

I think you'll find the artist in this case is using the word 'gun' as a metaphor for a part of his anatomy,the clue is in the phrase 'love-gun'. The chap with the jewelry is using the word 'gun' to mean 'I is thick gansta with a deadly weapon' i.e. not a part of his anatomy but er, a gun.

I disagree. I think the poet means that he will shoot her in the heart and make her fall in love with him. I don't think he means to kill her, his intentions are romantic.

I know quite a few young lads who worked the doors whilst doing their degrees. They don't all come from the Guy Ritchie school for London Bouncers.

Maybe, but taking the lyrics and not not knowing the "author" then I don't see that much difference between this chap and lots of other musical types.

Tricky to buy a love gun of the anatomical type:
"I bought me a love gun
Just the other day"
unless it came with "attachments"...

An interesting viewpoint: If this opinion is followed it might indicate the poet suffers from a lack of confidence i.e. he feels he has to arm himself in order to woo a young lady.

However it's strangely charming that our songwriter still follows the romantic notion that the human heart is responsible for matters of love in the modern world. Perhaps there is a touch of renaissance man behind the thick gansta image?

Does intelligence actually get 'sapped away' or simply sapped?

He arms himself and shoots her in the heart like cupid. Whether being cocked is about the bow and arrow or about generally being ready to begin the romance i'm unsure but I think it's a modern take on a traditional love ballad.

Does make you wonder though - I can't remember the last time I heard a new song with intelligent lyrics.

Well, they are out there, but they're never particularly commercial. Do we take this as a reflection on British society?

Gangnam style

The latest "masterpiece".
Although it is quite amusing.

aarrrrrgh this thread is too confusing, doorman complains about someone else being thick....

Sorry OP, it's not like your chosen profession is filled with brain surgeons and particle physicists that just "couldn't be bothered" with all the paperwork and decided bouncing was the career for them...

you're probably an intelligent, likeable bloke, but you're be a single bright shining star amongst a cloud of dullards, thickets, thugs and knuckle draggers.

He was on buzzcocks the other night, cock back lock and load, seems like a fairly blatant ploy to get a few itunes pennies out of the hundreds of thousands of wanna-be gangstas that litter the inner cities and suburbs.

Wonder if he is thick enough to believe his own hype though...

I'm glad i wasn't the only one who was thinking that!

No idea, but I do know that I can hear the sound of my IQ dropping when I talk to some people.

He did bang Tulisa on numerous occasions though. More reason to hate him and all that he stands for.

Why would that make you hate him?

Are you jealous that he bumped uglies with some council estate scrubber? They're two a penny mate, knock yourself out!

This just tells me that Rod Rammage found a new career as a song writer after PH.

I think you should put your creative energyies to a score for this little ditty;

Gonna fireup ma 'light sabre,
From da death star I'm gonna save-ya,
Yo Princess Leah feel ma powa,
Gonna take you up da OXO tower.
