Thread Name: Songs about Bloody Gore -- But Just For Laughs
Subject: RE: Bloody Gore -- But Just For Laughs
Seems to me that I've posted these lyrics before in a thread some months ago. But anyway--my nomination for a bloody gory song is one by Patrick Sky. I can't remember the title; I call it "Was A Lousy Baby Anyway." [="OUR BABY DIED LAST NIGHT"]

Our baby died last night
It lived but forty-eight hours
And it cost a hunnert dollars
Was a lousy baby, anyway.

Its head, it turned to mush
It squished between my fingers
Its little blood still lingers
Was a lousy baby anyway.

I forget the rest. (Which is probably just as well.)
