When A Kid Goes Bad

When A Kid Goes Bad

you got a different kind of

look in your eye

something about you

that i don't recognize

these things are talked about

on quiet tones

i never saw a person

so all alone

some momma's cryin'

some daddy's sad

when a kid goes bad

makes you wonder

what made him mad

when a kid goes bad

you built for innocence

you built for joy

suddenly evil's all that

you enjoy

but if you shoot at every

one you see, well you

can't be my friend 'cause

you might shoot at me

some momma's cryin'

some daddy's sad

when a kid goes bad

makes you wonder

what made him mad

when a kid goes bad

when a kid goes bad

when a kid goes bad

somewhere along the way

did we let you down

did you cry out for help and

none was around

don't try to tell me

that you don't know the score

are you so shut down

you can't feel anymore?

some momma's cryin'

some daddy's sad

when a kid goes bad

makes you wonder

what made him mad

when a kid goes bad

when a kid goes bad
