Pink‐Slip Murder Suicide (Lyrics)

On any given day on any given week In any given town on any given street News is never good in a bad economy So we gotta let you go just to save the company You start to sweat and you start to panic Your first thought's revenge and how you would plan it With no concern for those you condemn And the pain that you cause all your family and friends Pink-slip murder suicide Pink-slip murder suicide You better plan your escape if you want to survive You read it in the paper and you see it in the news Every day, another shooting at a job or in a school It's spreading like a plague, infecting what you do A copy-cat crime and the media's the fuel So how many times have you heard this said? "I hate my life and I wish I was dead" Words of dismay only meant to describe Not to overreact and take an innocent life Pink-slip murder suicide Pink-slip murder suicide Pop culture has glorified Pink-slip murder suicide Pink-slip murder suicide Know where to run, know where to hide A drastic reaction to a bad situation A selfish way out of your obligations For those you affect, it's a lifetime of pain And all that you get, fifteen minutes of shame
