The Hyperskalics - A Better Night Lyrics

He ran with his crew of all foreign men
Not one was a brother there was no relation
Whatsoever
For the boys unfortunate mother had married
A man with a gun
It was a normal night of crime and wrongdoing
There's always jobs that had worth pursuing
Whether it be money or dope or pride
Each one was paid for their time
And there couldn't have been a better night than this
To make a mistake that would change a kid
And there wasn't a powder that had been invented
Or a pill
To take this away

He was standing in a crowd that was getting to big
But the boy with a lighter and a broken cig
All of them had not seen him but the boy drew first
And they all stepped away
But the boy though effected he wasn't concerned
But the victims parents for he only earned to feel
What it was like to take another's life
But he'll never know
And there couldn't have been a better night than this
To make a mistake that would change a kid
And there wasn't a powder that had been invented
Or a pill
To take this away
And there couldn't have been a better night than this
To make a mistake that would change a kid
And there wasn't a powder that had been invented
Or a pill
To take this away
