Late at night you open the door Your old man's drunk and madder then hell Another violent conflict, you never asked for this The place that you call home is now a cell He's punching out your mother, and now he turns on you This always seems to happen every night You're heading for the kitchen, you grab a butcher knife This time you know you're gonna have to fight You warn him that you've had enough This time he's gonna get what he deserves He charges. you knife him You wasted him before you lost your nerve Parricide You stabbed him twenty times. It only seemed like once Your family's in a state of shock The bastard lies there lifeless, your mother starts to scream You know you're gonna have to call the cops You warned him, that you'd had enough This time he had to get whet he deserved He charged you, you knifed him You wasted him before you lost your nerve Parricide The cops are knocking on your door. the neighbours crowd outside An ambulance is wailing In the night They put the cuffs on, read your rights and lock you in their car They question you about the violent fight Neighbours start to glare at you, the ambulance arrives They bring the bloody carcass out in sheets You had to kill In self-defense you didn't have a choice You had to carve him like a piece of meat Seventeen days later, you're sitting in the court They set you free they knew they should acquit In spite of how you killed him, your self-defense was just The punishment you dealt him seemed to fit Parricide JustifiedTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
