So Wicked [Live]

It was on the news this evening, twelve years for what he did,
kicked to death a four year old, an innocent little kid,
burnt her with his cigarettes, beat her black and blue,
her mother stood by and watched, I call that sick don't you?

I don't agree with killing, morally I think its wrong,
but if we're in the same room, don't think he'll live for long.
Would be hanging be answer, would child killers take heed?
Or should we just break their legs, and make the bastards bleed?
