The Twelve Days Of Christmas

On the first day of Christmas
My true love gave to me
drunk who drove into a tree

On the second day of Christmas
My true love gave to me
Two shattered skulls
And a drunk who drove into a tree…

Twelve beaten children
Eleven drive-by shootings
Ten frozen homeless
Nine amputations
Eight burn victims
Seven strangled shoppers
Six random knifings
Five suicides
Four beaten wives
Three O.D.’s
Two shattered skulls
And a drunk who drove into a tree.
