THE END OF THE VIOLENT PLAYGROUND

It was on the violent playground these kids met
Plans were being made targets needed to be set
All ages were there whether fifteen or fiveĀ 
Had to be sharp and savvy if you were to surviveĀ 

Mothers and fathers were nowhere to be seenĀ 
Is it any wonder these kids turned out so mean
The teachers tried but were fighting a losing battleĀ 
As they tried to shepherd the kids like farm cattleĀ 

Johnny Savoy was considered leader of the packĀ 
Gave the coppers stress and so much flackĀ 
When he told the kids jump they asked how high
For Johnny they would go into battle and dieĀ 

Then one day things came to an abrupt haltĀ 
Johnny was found guilty of battery and assaultĀ 
The kids on the violent playground were no more
Fighting I'm happy to say shown the back door
