she had excuses and she just used them
she was the victim of unspeakable abuses
her husband was violent, vilishus and distant
her kids now belong to the state of Ma*sachusetts!

they've been taken away!
they've been taken away!

[chorus:]
Betty was a bright one
tommy's off his head
mother loved them both the same,at least thats what she said
i don't predict the future, i don't care about the past
send them both to DSS, now you had your chance
the boys who took stole babies
the tenants took your rides
you can have your children gone tonight

i suppose you were a victim
i suspect you may have lied
you've lost all ambition why don't you give this thing a try
if you can't and you fail won't be the only loser
these kid don't stand a chance with you in their future!

they've been taken away!
they've been taken away!
