COCKY (cock - y)
JARRING (jar - ring)
HEADSHOT (head - shot)
KEYNOTE (key - note) (?)
ICONIC (credits to @hdsdv for this one, I was looking for a word ending in ICY, or something to do with red eye, blue sea)
BONG (hit a bowl) or PUNCHBOWL (credits to @hdsdv and @GarethMcCaughan for this idea)
Now
Picking the third letter of each word yields CRAYON

$\begingroup$ I believe 5 is rot13(VPBAVP) and 6 is rot13(CHAPUOBJY) $\endgroup$– hdsdvAug 15, 2019 at 15:48

$\begingroup$ Last one looks to me more like rot13(chapuobjy). I wonder whether 4 might be rot13(cbfg-vg abgr), punning on rot13("abgr"). Definitely agree about 2 and 3. $\endgroup$– Gareth McCaughan ♦Aug 15, 2019 at 15:49

$\begingroup$ Actually, on reflection I like Arnaud's answer for 4 better than mine. $\endgroup$– Gareth McCaughan ♦Aug 15, 2019 at 15:51
