| 作词 : Killough | |
| The churches are empty, the jails are all full | |
| It's over our own eyes we're pulling wool | |
| Making us blind to decay from within | |
| Misguided values where greed is no sin | |
| Schools are all open but Johnny can't read | |
| With hands tied behind them the teachers just plead | |
| Johnny needs parents who honestly care | |
| But they're busy working with no time to spare | |
| So blame it on Washington, blame it on me | |
| Blame it on drugs or the next guy you see | |
| Blame it on money when push comes to shove | |
| But the blame really lies in the absence | |
| The absence of love | |
| Guns on the streets, drugs on the rise | |
| That victims are children should be no surprise | |
| They become what they are from watching adults | |
| We all took the test, these are the results | |
| Now it's bars on the windows and locks on the doors | |
| They look more like prisons than houses and stores | |
| It's a moral dilemma wherever you go | |
| When love says good-bye, ill will says hello |
