Lyrics
We were parked under a bridge in Philadelphia
Brandon was working out the metre
And to my left there was like a, kinda
Wide alleyway
There was a kid
He was sat on a step
Can't have been more than 9, maybe 10
He wasn't playing with anything or anyone
The kid had no shoes on
And then a van came along and two men jumped out
They reminded me of McConaughey
In that film about aids that didn't win enough
Tall, skinny with washed-out blue jeans
And a mean moustache, a kinda yellowey-orange
Now the guy who I am guessing was the boy's dad
He pulled out a gym bag and he lay it to the ground
I remember this next part vividly
It'll stay with me
Are you ready?
He swung a hammer at that little boy's face
He missed on purpose
Because he enjoyed it
