Billy was and orphan,
Tommy was a whore
Poe got drunk in Baltimore
Getting drunk and shooting guns was all he ever had
Could it be that's what made our boy so bad
Bad bad men and they're coming to town (Bad men)
They shot a man just for snoring to load Billy the kid, Jesse James..
The jail is wide open and the towns in flames
Sneaking in the back door, hiding in the night
Capering with corpses in the dank moonlight
They started robbing banks, then cattle mutilation
Now his offsprings terrorize the nation Billy got drunk,
Bull got even Bull went belly-up and joined up with the G-men
Piece of meat in the street, torn apart in the town
By the inflatable hands of a sinister clown
Bad bad men and they're coming to town (Bad men)
Shot a man just for snoring too damn loud Robert DeNiro, when he's a hero
Bring on the anti-hero, my zero-hero
Hearts full of anger, hearts full of fear Billy looked up from the bed and said,
"I'm walking outta here"
It's a new religion, carnival of crime
Doomed to repetition, with it we mark time I feel jacked up, drinking my 4-O
Blew your face to the bumper
And then I just said,
"Yo" It's a new religion, carnival of sleaze
Drag you up that dusty road and leave you creaking in the breeze
