The Boxmasters Love & Hate in Desperate Places






Somebody's hurtin tonight

(Billy Bob Thornton/JD Andrew)

They said there's only seven dead
It's more fun if there's more bloodshed
At first they said it was twenty five
There's too many of 'em left alive

People in front of their TV sets
Watching hell no-one forgets
For some the morbid entertains
For some that hell always remains

Somebody's hurtin' tonight
Loved ones headed toward the light
They're screaming how can it be right
They weren't lookin' for a fight
Somebody's hurtin' tonight
Darkness put them in its sight
In a script they'd never write
Somebody's hurtin' tonight

Hey look at that car wrapped around that pole
What an end for some poor soul
Guess they must've gone out of control
Hey Honey can you check on the casserole

People in front of their TV sets
Watching hell no-one forgets
For some the morbid entertains
For some that hell always remains

Somebody's hurtin' tonight
Loved ones headed toward the light
They're screaming how can it be right
They weren't lookin' for a fight
Somebody's hurtin' tonight
Darkness put them in its sight
In a script they'd never write
Somebody's hurtin' tonight
