Some mama's cryin', some daddy's sad
Are you so shut down, you can't feel anymore?
Bad, bad, yeah, when a kid goes bad, yeah
Some mama's cryin', some daddy's sad
When a kid goes bad
When a kid goes bad, when a kid goes bad
Suddenly evil's all that you enjoy
Makes you wonder what made him mad
When a kid goes bad, when a kid goes bad
You built for innocence, you built for joy
When a kid goes bad, when a kid goes bad
Somewhere along the way did we let you down?
I never saw a person so all alone
Bad, bad, when a kid goes bad, oh, oh
Did you cry out for help and none was around?
Well, you can't be my friend 'cause you might shoot at me
Make you wonder what made him mad
Make you wonder what made him mad
But if you shoot at everyone you see
When a kid goes bad
Don't try to tell me that you don't know the score
When a kid goes bad
Some mama's cryin', some daddy's sad
These things are talked about in quiet tones
