Welcome to Berkeley

I knew a girl who had a miscarriage on the bus on her way to Highland Hospital
I knew a girl who was 17 and pregnant she shot heroin in her arm
I knew a girl was 23, she did an overdose and died and now I guess she's free
I knew a boy who threw his body in front of a train guess he couldn't take the hell that lived in his brain

Welcome to Berkeley
Punk Rock wonderland
Your heroes on every corner
Fun for the whole family
Fun for the whole family

I knew a girl who couldn't stand being attacked
She died when four bullets pierced her back
I knew a boy who tried to stop a fight he got stabbed to death
Was a girl who was fifteen years old she died of overdose and no one seemed to notice
My momma got gang-raped, brought me in the world and gave me away

You can watch your innocence corrupt
You can watch your friends corrupt
You can watch your innocence self-destruct
You can watch your friends self-destruct
A junkie's life is so glamorous
A junkie's life is so glamorous
A teen parent's life is so glamorous
A dead kid's life is pretty uneventful
