Emmy was a school gem
And she shot the shit with the best of them
And she used clean needles when she can
And if that veins down use the other one

Sanctified rich girl
With her daddy's kisses
And her mother's pearls
And she played dumb, and played hard to get
And it worked until they found her dead

We all go down and hit the ground. (x4)

Lizzy was a teacher
She had 30 kids and they were all a peach
And then a spaceman came along
Took her hard and led her home
Came home drunk from town and he took his gun and he shot her down
And the judge said he could not believe that a man would kill his family

We all go down and hit the ground (x4)
(And you gotta call it something
Cause it always end up nothing
For you to see that times goes on.) (x2)
