Knew Mary well we work nights on a Saturday
At five and dime up beside Miami’s interstate
Her mother died and her dad’s collecting cans
She stays in school just to please old Uncle Sam
Lost in a dream in the wasted promised land she’s Miss America
Knew Mary well she wore white on her sabbath day
No beer or teen sex in her boyfriend’s silver Chevrolet
She knew no mercy from her father's loving hand
Lays down her beaten bones reciting who I am
Living the dream in this wasted promised land she’s Miss America
And at the five and dime no soul in sight
In Mary’s eyes no soul inside
Knew Mary well but she didn’t show for work today
Hope Mary’s well oh you should of seen the news today
Seems Robert man had unhatched his masterplan
When he came to school with a gun hid in his bag
He drew the cross-hair now there’s blood pressed on his hands and
You better run boy better run fast as you can
The evening news that night said 14 people died and with one last bullet Robert man then took his life
Upon the TV screen back at the five and dime
Read Mary Jones who died in hospital last night she’s Miss America
