Bullet-ridden Bodies Lyrics - Singles - The Accüsed

In 1989 in New York city alone 

140 youths under the age of 18 

Were gunned down 

Gunned down 

Bullet ridden bodies 

The streets are the new battle fields 

Someone's gonna die, the blood never stops flowing 

The streets are the new battle fields 

Littered with bullet ridden bodies 

And families mourning their dead. 

14 years ol selling five dollar rocks of crack cocaine 

You ripped off the wrong people 

Now you've got the sights of the 9mm 

Aimed at the back, back of your head. 

The first shot fired pierces his skull 

As eight more shots are pumped into his body 

As he crumples into the new fallen snow. 

14 years ol selling five dollar rocks of crack cocaine 

You crossed the wrong people 

Now you've got the sights of the 9mm 

Aimed at the back, back of your head. 

The blood, his blood, drips from the snow 

Into the slush-filled streets. 

A crowd starts to gather 

A young girl begins to scream 

BOGOTA, COLUMBIA 

50 bodies float down a raging river 

Hands cut off at the wrist 

Headless and bloated from weeks 

In the tropical water. 

The streets are the new battle fields 

Someone's gonna die, the blood never stops flowing 

The streets are the new battle fields 

An families mourning their dead.
