Buck-O-Nine

Policeman smoking pot in the parking lot of a cocktail bar
Rockstar junkie dies of an overdose at 27
We watch it on the tube and listen to it on the radio
The thing that baffles me are the things we cannot see
What we gonna read tommorow?
Something that we see today
Guns and tears and sorrows
What will the headlines read today?
Man of 65 says hes gonna die by the hand of her
Points to a Street woman whos had too much to drink
She chased him into a bank where he screamed call
Nine one one
The thing that baffles me are the things we cannot see
Party winding down
Then a sudden frown
Over a bottle of wine
She said, "Thats mine" then a sudden crack
She smashed his face
I guess it cant be seen!
What will the headlines be today?
