The Days were a clan that mighta lived longBut Ben Day’s head got screwed on wrongThat boy craved dark Satan’s powerSo he killed his family in one nasty hourLittle Michelle he strangled in the nightThen chopped up Debby: a bloody sightMother Patty he saved for lastBlew off her head with a shotgun blastBaby Libby somehow survivedBut to live through that ain’t much a life—SCHOOLYARD RHYME, CIRCA 1985
