Hatchet Town

[00:00.47] I've never known darker times
[00:02.49] And I've covered the protests live
[00:04.39] At the Hatchetfield kennel (ah-ah-ah)
[00:07.57] I am Dan Reynolds (ah-ah-ah)
[00:09.01] With Action News, weekdays at 10 PM
[00:11.33] I hate to relay the news
[00:13.22] But the football team might be screwed
[00:15.02] Stay inside, watch your children (ah-ah-ah)
[00:17.99] 'Cause a losin' streak's comin' (ah-ah-ah)
[00:19.51] A losin' streaks comin'
[00:21.35] There's a man on the loose and he's got a gun
[00:24.06] Better put out the APB
[00:26.95] The psycho's killed two, if he gets me next, make it three
[00:30.15] (If he gets me next, I could be three)
[00:32.29] We're chasin' wild goose and we don't know how
[00:35.12] Watch the blame go around
[00:37.52] Man down, down, down, down
[00:40.33] Who's swingin' the hatchet now in Hatchet Town?
[00:43.38] Someone's got their hands on the hatchet handle
[00:46.13] Swinging on the youth, it's a hatchet scandal
[00:49.00] Careful or your folks will end up a cannibal's plate
[00:52.72] It ain't great
[00:54.54] You're better on the run than you are hiding
[00:57.48] Suddenly this quiet town's exciting
[01:00.98] I heard that the brains were soup
[01:02.66] Their intestines were cut in two
[01:04.69] So it's gotta be Donna
[01:07.53] Yeah, it's gotta be Donna
[01:10.28] Dan?
[01:11.97] Reynolds was in the school
[01:13.65] We all know he's the local mule
[01:15.64] Selling drugs to our children (I'm a volunteer counselor)
[01:18.75] We know he loves killing (I certainly don't love killing)
[01:22.25] Bailey's on the loose and he's got a gun
[01:24.50] And he's got a motive to kill
[01:26.76] I'm a cop!
[01:27.57] The case is closed, his description matches the bill
[01:30.52] Fits the bill, he fits the bill
[01:32.98] The killer's gotta go for what he's done
[01:35.65] If you don't take him in, I will
[01:38.22] Man down, down, down, down
[01:41.13] Who's swingin' the hatchet now in (Hatchet Town?)
[01:43.92] Lauter's got his hands on the hatchet handle (What, what, what?)
[01:46.87] Swinging on the youth from his high mantle (I am the mayor!)
[01:49.69] Careful or your kids will end up on Karen's plate (Excuse me?)
[01:53.39] She just ate (How dare you?)
[01:55.30] You're better on the run than you are hiding
[01:58.12] Suddenly this quiet town's divided
[02:00.93] Singing all these songs gives him greater windows to kill
[02:04.28] But we're singin' still
[02:06.76] Oh, I remember, before the lockdown
[02:13.74] The sun was shinin' on our town
[02:18.51] And our kids could walk the streets
[02:23.99] Oh-oh, I remember the candy and rainbows
[02:34.23] No hatred, only halos
[02:38.38] And I knew what a life could mean
[02:43.46] Until Jerry went on his murder spree
[02:53.22] I knew it was Jerry!
[02:54.21] It was Girl Jeri, that dirty girl
[02:56.03] Let's kill 'em
[02:57.50] Someone's got their hands on the hatchet handle
[03:00.27] Swinging on the youth, it's a hatchet scandal
[03:03.16] Careful or your kids will encounter a terrible fate
[03:06.45] We're at Hell's gate
[03:08.61] You're better on the run from this bloody-letting
[03:11.46] Suddenly the show is real upsetting
[03:14.30] It's looking like the hatchet sun is setting on us
[03:18.09] Who can we trust?
[03:19.87] Who's swingin' the hatchet now?
[03:22.79] Can I shit or will I drown?
[03:25.54] Man down, down, down, down (It's goin' down, it's goin' down)
[03:28.48] Who stepped on our hallowed ground
[03:32.13] In Hatchet Town?
[03:35.85]
