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
