They were bad again last night
Evening News reports a fight
Drawing pistols left and right
Bodies found in morning light
Folks on Dodge don’t go to bed
Thought they’d have a drink instead
Said some things were best unsaid
Massive bruises to the head
In the papers everyday
Being handcuffed and led away
They don’t mind a prison stay
Just plain bad and full of hate
Robbing folks and shooting up
Won’t act right no matter what
You would think they’d had enough
Doing wrong and being tough
Don’t start nothing won’t be none
Somebody got a can of some
Started fires one by one
Millions in damage when they were done
Mama taught me crime don’t pay
Be good and out of trouble stay
Treat people the golden way
Don’t go round where bad kids play
Babies cussing before they talk
Kicking butt before they walk
Spank that butt against the law
How we gonna win this war
Some of who should be protecting
Out with criminals connecting
Justice system no one’s respecting
Down destructive path we’re heading
Living in a world of strife
Makes you kind of feel uptight
Folks don’t value precious life
Yes they were bad again last night
