it wasn't a pretty picture

Singer:social distortion

last nite a whore- found murdered in the streets. the skid row bums are just waking up

a politician

caught holding drugs

a friend who's left us in a suicidal way. no-one said life would be easy

doesn't mean that much to me-

a crash-a bash-up on highway 109

his wife has left him for another man

a kid

a child experiments with drugs

a friend who's left us in a suicidal way. no-one said life would be easy

the executioner

has sung his last song-
