It's loved... It's killed

Braulio has big eyes and dark hair
He never overeats nor does he sleeps in the nude
He always wears grey because he's beyond help
He tends to always search for a midpoint
Dana is a good girl; that's what her parents say
She never arrives home after ten nor too late
Braulio and Dana love each other just like any couple
But one day they fell prey to nature
And they couldn't escape
From their own instincts
Burning on the inside
And with raging hormones
Because of the law of attraction
Their bodies got closer
 
During tea time nothing ever happens
Oh oh oh
You just will go far away from home
Oh oh oh
Because you brought one more inhabitant
To live in this rotted city
Where whatever is not wanted, is killed... is killed
 
That day you arrived a bit past ten
But the surprise came a few weeks later
When they confirmed your worst fears
A child was going to be born and you knew the date already
And before either the neighbour or your family knew
You went to the doctor, to get rid of the problem
Today, your neighbour is at home taking a nice shower
While you are six feet underground, watching worms grow
 
During tea time nothing ever happens
Oh oh oh
You just will go far away from home
Oh oh oh
Because you brought one more inhabitant
To live in this rotted city
Where whatever is not wanted, is killed... is killed
