The State Of Massachusetts Lyrics

Artist: Dropkick Murphys
Album: The Meanest Of Times

she had excuses and she chose to use them
she was the victim of unspeakable abuses
her husband was violent, malicious and distant
her kids now belong to the state of Massachusetts!

they've been taken away!
they've been taken away!

[chorus:]
Billy was the bright one
tommy's off his head
mother loved them both the same,at least thats what she said
i don't predict the future, i don't care about the past
send them both to DSS, now you had your chance
the posion took your babies
the judges took your rights
you can have your children or the night!
I supposed youve been a victim
though i suspect you may have lied
have youlost all ambition why don't you give this thing a try
if you can't and you fail won't be the only loser
these kid don't stand a chance with you in their future!

they've been taken away!
they've been taken away!

[chorus x2]

I think it's actually "the poison STOLE your babies", otherwise it's right.

When you say Chorus x2 that is a little off cause you repeat other places.

This song is awesome, but I always thought Ma was reffered to as "the commonwealth of massachusetts".

to answer your statement about the whole commonwealth it is but it is referring to the state as like the soul of massachusetts. you know like how it is doing
