So black, it's a desperate night
20 years back from today
One mother and a kid name Tony
Learning life the hardest way
Ah ah: daddy has gone too soon
Ah ah: for the young boy to be cool
Well, Tony rules in the schoolyard
Everybody says
Blue eyes clentched fists and many reasons
For Tony to go astray
Ah ah: at night he likes to roam
Ah ah: he's the only man at home
(Refrain:)
La la la la la...
His heart is big as a mansion
That is all you need to know
The Young boy has become a young man
But the rage didn't cease to grow
Hey boy the path you are taking will lead you straight to the wall
I'm a policeman after all
And you wont get away
Bang bang i've got you on sight my friend
(refrain)
Ah ah: mister officer you were right
Ah ah: little Tony boy turn out bad
Ah ah: he's was taught life's a fight
Bang bang they shot him down he's dead
Break down
I know that's a real a shame but this is how the story ends
It's a wonderful world we do live in so his fate is in your hands
And I say
Ah ah: press 1 if you want him out
Ah ah: press 2 and you bring him back
Ah ah: press 1 if you want him dead
Ah ah: press 2 and his back again
(refrain)
