Dropkick Murphys Shattered Lyrics

Something's gone wrong with the world today
What's the matter with the human race
Everybody's fighting for more power and money
Braveheart's a racist
The paperboy's a junkie

And whats with the role models for all our boys and girls
Anorexic skinny monsters who seem to rule the world
The ball players you loved as a kid are gone
They've been replaced by streroid fed neanderthals
(Replaced by neanderthals)

Shattered, Shattered, when people aren't always what they seem

When you favorite bands singer got arrested with a tranny on his job
Meanwhile little Danny down the blocks all alone
He's been abused by the parish priest
He's embarrassed and ashamed
Thinks he disgraced the family name
He's gonna buy a gun and settle the score
Then who you gonna call the local cop stalking girls down the mall
Or the worlds greatest crooks from the FBI
(The crooks from the FBI)

Shattered, Shattered, when people aren't always what they seem
Shattered, Shattered, when the ones that we rely on break thier word

Shattered, Shattered, when people aren't always what they seem
Shattered, Shattered, when the ones that we rely on break their word

Dad's never home, he says he's working overtime
Meanwhile mommy's heads in the sand she thinks everything is fine
She says "Now Dad's important kids so stay out of his way"
But little did she know that the Governor was gay
(She didn't know the Governor was gay)

Shattered, Shattered, when people aren't always what they seem
Shattered, Shattered, when the ones that we rely on break thier word
