Shot down in cold blood fever Spread the news as fast as you can Get it out to all the fine people They wanna know But they don't wanna understand Some kid, a little bit hyper Takes his medicine like a good boy Hard snap in his head one monday Spraying bullets with his new shiny metal toy Black Shadow Symphony Come whisper loudly in my ear With every little sound bite I'm more addicted to your fear Front page on every paper Television special report Soak it up like a sponge on steroids If it's bad, we only want to hear it more Hey you, the one in denial You can dream but you're never gonna sleep Take a hard look in the mirror Everyone of us is part of a disease yeah Black shadow symphony Come whisper loudly in my ear With every little sound bite I'm more addicted to your fear Everybody says put the kid in a jail for life Or better yet let the sucker fry He's an evil child Load 'em up and ship 'em off to another galaxy (there's) nothing wrong with our society The home of the well adjusted man [Solo-Chorus Out]
