Pumped Up Kicks

This song  has really strange lyrics about a kid who loves to be a cowboy and really wants a gun. In the 1st verse its says “He’s got a rolled cigarette hanging out his mouth he’s a cowboy kid.” I mean who lets their child have a cigarette? And in the chorus it says “All the other kids with the pumped up kicks better run better run outrun my gun”  Why would the kid want to kill children with nice shoes? Annndd.. its also goes “I found a 6 shooter gun in my dads closet full of a box of fun things” Why does is dad have a gun? But I’m sure theres some deep reason behind the lyrics. More the less it’s still a great song and I love to listen to it…
