Overkill - Ministry

He left his house;

he should have stayed

He went to work so he’d get paid

So he’d afford his brand new maid

Other things that make life great

He hopped a bus and then a train

Few more stops he’d have it made

But something happened on this day

That put this man into his grave

The train broke down he took a cab

He told the man to make it fast

They ran into a concrete slab

Then cries and screams for many times

He left the cab, walked down the street

There a person he did meet

Who thought his gun was pretty neat

And wanted to see someone bleed

Stumbling on for two more blocks

His body was in total shock

Punch in time was eight o’clock

He’s hours late, so he’d be docked

Twenty feet from where he worked

He fell upon some teenage jerks

They took his cash then went berzerk

And killed the poor old office clerk

He should have stayed home

He should have stayed home

He should have stayed home
