There once was a park where the kids used to go But not anymore 'cause their parents all know There's junkies and whores and bums drinking beer And the tragic event that happened last year Two kids were playing, digging in the sand One with a shovel and one with his hand Jabbed by a needle carrying hiv And now he's infected with the disease He found syringes in the sandbox He found syringes in the sandbox The cops just watch 'cause they're on the take Maybe the don't know what is at stake The lives of children, with certainty Maybe the rest of the community We're only human, what can you expect? Just shows the life we're willing to accept Another drive-by, everyone stares What it comes down to is nobody cares He found syringes in the sandbox He found syringes in the sandbox
