1
Beer cans and cigarette butts cover the floor day
2
Half gone, he sleeps scared pregnant teen in the doorway
3
Watching him sleep clutchin' her belly, little feet kick
4
to send the teen back to the toilet, spent her last week sick
5
when little Billy feed her ground up Jesus powder
6
would've beat her louder if it would've pushed the fetus out of her
7
Father in the making, crooked M.P. forsaken
8
The military cop that sells H to bring his cake in
9
She shaking, praying her labor kicks in before
10
The doors kicked in for them brown bricks on the floor
11
I mean, she could tell you exactly how the gutter taste
12
Father to her kid in custody right when her water breaks
13
Snitched on his compadres for a few more runs
14
And the irony in giving a stuffed rat to his newborn son
15
Dishonorably discharged, no jail time in court
16
Told to pack his family up and go the fuck back to New York
17
[Chorus]
18
Fuck Bill Murray, not the actor, the deadbeat dad the smacked
19
then left her with rats after he snapped her
20
The bastard inventor that bent her backwards in winter
21
with her back against the wall, she can hear death singing in her
22
With her back against the wall, she still head death singing in her
23
She's scared to leave him, convinced somehow she really needs him
24
Back in New York her prison of pain and Billy's freedom
25
Holdin' her baby, he'd say crazy shit to break her
26
When she fell asleep, he'd escape her wits end and wouldn't wake her
27
He'd sneak out the wallo in it role model to shit
28
That put his Christian scientist father in debt
29
Gave him his first stroke, he refused his medication
30
'Cause it went against his religion, he'd rather his lord take him
31
Through stroke number two and start withering his flesh
32
Then lay the emaciated world ware two veteran to rest
33
Left his family debt turmoil and wreckage
34
And his grandson to scatter his ash over the U.S. Intrepid
35
Then little Billy plummets to his knees, still numb from it
36
Held his kid by the arm with a shotgun to his stomach
37
When threats to destroy what he created get tucked away
38
when he looks in his son's face to see he might grow up to say
39
[Chorus]
40
Needle through the skin again, inject the rust and cinnamon
41
Pull off the tourniquet, load up the shotgun and sentence him
42
He knows that there's a bed in hell waitin for him
43
But he ain't been sane since he started huffin chloroform
44
With his shit decorum, he lets off shots the neighbors say shooters
45
Into the phone to Middletown police and state troopers
46
While every family member on th premises runs from death
47
Greeted by dozens of officers with guns and vests
48
His suicide by cop sweater on get low
49
Is told to the crowd watching him shoot thru the window
50
His son clutched in his mother's arms, unaware it's the end
51
They bring him out in handcuffs but never to be seen again
52
[Chorus]
