Come all the unfortunates
Come on with your throwaway youth
They say it's written for you
No matter what you do
Cause you see something happened up in robin hood hills
The devil had his way
But the locals say they're on to something
They say they know his name
Did you happen to see the paper today
And see what them troubled boys had done?
Another unidentified youth
Mistaken for something he'd never done
Come all the unfortunates
Come on with your ghetto youth
There's talk on the police radio
Any suspect will do
Cause there was an on-scene deputy
And he had it in for the West Memphis Three
Got them for murder of the first degree
But the crowd wanted more
Did you happen to see the paper today
And see what them troubled boys had done?
Another unidentified youth
Mistaken for something he'd never done
So get going, get gone
So get going, it's time to move on
So get up get going, see what them troubled boys have seen
Cause the future is all-knowing, but get too close and too close you'll be
So get up get going, see what them troubled boys have seen
Cause the future is all-knowing, but get too close and too close you'll be
Cause the future is all-knowing, but get too close and too close you'll be
State Radio released Unfortunates on Tue Sep 25 2007.
