People can be mean to animals & children. Pray for the fool...
The photo is our dog Diamond who was killed by a fast car nascar imitator

All over town there are dogs that ain't been watered

Ain't one sidewalk left
some old drunk ain't tottered on
his way home on his way home

You can hear their cries before the sun hits the rise

You can hear it for yourself if you would open up your eyes
all over town
all over town

(chorus)

Pray for the fool who can be so cruel

Who disregards his own destiny

Pray for the children who learn this senseless killin'
from you
and from me


All over town there are dogs that ain't been watered

Ain't one lamb left that ain't been slaughtered
on it's way home
on it's way home

You can hear their screams in your nightmarish dreams

And if they were able they would turn those dirty tables
around on you
and around on me

(chorus)

All over town there are things that never mattered

Hearts and dreams and window screens that have been shattered
by the one that you loved
by the one that you loved

Then you find that you're alone
in a stranger's home

And if you could you would burn those hearts of wood
to the ground
all over town
