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

Very Nice. True so true. All of it. What gets me is the fear the parents have against spanking their children. We as voters can change this. If the parent are out of control.. then they should be sited for child abuse. A good spanking never killed anyone. It seems to be part of some plan. To break down the fiber of society. Corruption starts from the top. Our elected officials are wrong. From the white house to our house. Those fortunate to move their children to the suburbs and keep them in music, and dance classes are buying their protection. Somethings in the water. Nobody is complaining.. or talking about the real right and wrong of laws.
