Who's To Blame

(альбом: The American Way - 1990)

Jonny can you hear me
Turn that music down
You're making too much noise
I mean it do it now
All that stuff is evil
Ozzy, Judas Priest
There's backwards messages in that stuff that leads you to the beast

Jonny don't you hear me
Open up that door
I've been calling you for hours
I won't say it anymore
Just wait until your dad gets home and sees what you have done
Kicked out of school
You've got no job
You're a useless delinquent bum
Oh my god it's Jonny hanging by his neck
All those metal albums have led him to his death

Now it's time for parents to open ears and listen
Maybe it's too late to see what you've been missing
Music is no cause of death it's you that suffocates
If you had opened your eyes and ears you'd see just who's to blame

Who's to be responsible for a life that's gone off track
Who's the one who must be there to see it gets put back
Where were you to hear the cries of a person in need
Were you there to see the signs or were you too busy

Now it's time for parents to open ears and listen
Maybe it's too late to see what you've been missing
Music is no cause of death it's you that suffocates
If you had opened your eyes and ears you'd see just who's to blame

Who's to be responsible for a life that's gone off track
Who's the one who must be there to see it gets put back
Where were you to hear the cries of a person in need
Were you there to see the signs or were you too busy

Who's the cause, who's the blame for a life that's not worth living
Is it parents, family who take without giving
So next time that you close your eyes and choose to shift the blame
Remember you can save a life so really who's to blame?!
