lyrics

the solid sound of a .45
washed away the sleep from eyes
the bored lives stories above
stared down at catastrophic love
a lethal arcade game to follow
a desperate plea
the pride unswallowed
apparent efforts to mop up the place
ended with spilled predictable blood
unfortunately after ending the face
of an innocent man with nowhere to run

and the town fell to its knees with dread
and the entertainment producer said
NOT IN MY BACKYARD

Burkhart mother Burkhart son
the deranged Germanic duo
these are the tits I need
here's the money I don't have
so let's flee, a skip across the pond
it's new year's eve
something's bound to go wrong
fifty structure fires in three days
the hills will glow terra cotta
to match the skin of these cretins
payback's a bitch, Villaraigosa
extradition! laurel cyn burn!
extradition! franklin hills burn!
extradition! hollywood hills you're goin down!

and the town fell to its knees with dread
and the entertainment producer said
NOT IN MY BACKYARD

a morning stroll through Bronson
down the path from raven's ravine
a chilling discovery was made
a couple hands, a head, some feet
killer still at large
the case will never be closed
toss a treat to the golden retriever
indiana bones
atta boy pooch
don't let that head roll away, indiana bones

and the town fell to its knee with dread
and the entertainment producer said
NOT IN MY BACKYARD
