The State Of Massachusetts |
| She had excuses and she chose to use them |
| She was the victim of unspeakable abuses |
| Her husband was violent, malicious and distant |
| Her kids now belong to the state of Massachusetts |
| They’ve been taken away! |
| Hey! |
| They’ve been taken away! |
| Billy was a bright one, Tommy’s off his head |
| Mother loved them both the same, at least that’s what she said |
| I don’t predict the future, I don’t care about the past |
| Send them both to DSS, now you’ve had your chance |
| The poison stole your babies |
| The judges took your rights |
| You can have your children or the night |
| I suppose you’ve been a victim, I suspect you may have lied |
| Have you lost all ambition, won’t you give this thing a try |
| If you can’t and you fail, you won’t be the only loser |
| These kids don’t stand a chance with you in their future |
| They’ve been taken away! |
| Hey! |
| They’ve been taken away! |
| Billy was a bright one, Tommy’s off his head |
| Mother loved them both the same, at least that’s what she said |
| I don’t predict the future, I don’t care about the past |
| Send them both to DSS, now you’ve had your chance |
| The poison stole your babies |
| The judges took your rights |
| You can have your children or the night |
| The poison stole your babies |
| The judges took your rights |
| You can have your children or the night |
| Billy was a bright one, Tommy’s off his head |
| Mother loved them both the same, at least that’s what she said |
| I don’t predict the future, I don’t care about the past |
| Send them both to DSS, now you’ve had your chance |
| The poison stole your babies |
| The judges took your rights |
| You can have your children or the night. |
