lyrics

Jimmy jacked his father's gun
because he wasn't cool
and shot up all the bullies
making trouble at the school
now everybody's talkin' 'bout
what's wrong and what is right
while Jimmy's in a jumpsuit
facing 25 to life
Jennifer was sixteen
when she started having kids
she's older now and lies about
who the father is
Jeremy's in jail again
for pawning stolen shit
remember back
he was a bit different

it's honest, sad
it's awful truth
and coming to
a town near you
because we do
just like humans do

Peter's pickin' pockets
when he snagged a little bag
and Paul is always itchin' asking
where there's more of that
stealing things
from wheels to rings
oh! anything will do
it came as no surprise
they lost a finger or two...
Monica was super smart
always top notch grades
now she's out and hooking
off of OBT these days
Marty likes to party
always did and always will
it's no surprise
we found him stuffed with pills

it's honest, sad
it's awful truth
and coming to
a town near you
because we do
just like humans do

Benny was a simple boy
always had his head held high
he never touched a gun or drug
but he was still the first to die
and Georgie boy was having fun
til cancer spread to both his lungs
and Tony thought how he was tough
until God took his only son

it's honest, sad
it's awful truth
and coming to
a town near you
because we do
just like humans do

pick up the phone
put on the news
we're coming to
a town near you!
because we do
just like humans do

it's honest, sad
it's awful truth
and coming to
a town near you
because we do
just like humans do

pick up the phone!
knot up the noose!
we're fucking up
a town near you!
because we do
just like humans do
oh yeah we do
just like humans do
