The Daily War

Enlist in the Daily War
Lock your door!
The enemy wears no uniform
May be the boy next door
[did ya' lock it?]
He may hug you 'hello'
as he picks your pocket
Driving on downtown
a tire iron on the floor
got to be ready in this war
At a stop light  someone's
tuggin' on the passenger door
[ ya' did lock it?]
drove off so fast like to tore
his arm from the socket
This neighborhood is bad
wanna tell ya' what happened
to the best friend I ever had
As he was reaching for the sky
he and the guy who was robbing him
was shot and killed in a drive by
