The State Of Massachusetts Lyrics

The song The State Of Massachusetts is performed by Dropkick Murphys in the album named The Meanest Of Times in the year 2007 .

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

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

[chorus:]
Billy 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 poison who stole your babies
the judges took your rights
you can have your children, or the night

i suppose you were a victim
though 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!

[chorus] 1x

the boys who stole your babies
the tenants took your rides
you can have the children, or the night

[chorus] 1x
