When we got to the nightclub, I was less than thrilled
I saw who was in there and knew someone would get killed
The injury that had been done to me was too much to abide
I told my partner, "Go on home," and then I walked inside
Davey won't live one more day
His weakness and his wanderings are over
I pulled his mangled head away
And now he bothers no one, no more
I saw him in the corner, hatred in his mouth
And out of every hole, dishonesty and fear poured out
Just like every day, he was trying to get rid
Of the hopes, and happiness, and trust of every man and kid
Davey won't live one more day
His weakness and his wanderings are over
I put his feelings all away
And now he bothers no one, no more
You can't be bad and expect good
Things to shower over you
"Your reaping's from your sowing"
Is painstakingly true
If you destroy a child's perspective, here's what that child will do
Be faced with unrelenting hardship and render terror back at you
I took him by the collar, took him by the face
Threw him in the tractor beam that pulled him from the place
Into the night sky, he was shot, away from homes and bars
To ply his awfulness in vacuums, lost among the stars
Won't live one more day
His weakness and his wanderings are over
I put his mangled heart away
And now he bothers no one, no more
