Lyrics

[Verse 1]
People round here don't like to talk about it
Presumed dead, unsolved child murder
Since they dragged the lake, you know they seemed au-fait
Cordoned off some wood and gave the photo to a psychic
Presumed dead, unsolved child murder
[Verse 2]
If I die before my parents die
If I die before my parents die
[Verse 3]
More hate mail through the door
Didn't know that Sundays could be useful after all
People can be cruel and spineless
Hung around your house waitin' for your mother
Rachel says she's married to a doctor
Presumed dead, unsolved child murder
[Verse 4]
If I die before my parents die
If I die before my parents die
[Verse 5]
Better move on with the good stuff
Better move on right away
Sod this town tha people's pity, let's get on with the nitty gritty
Presumed dead, unsolved child murder
[Verse 6]
I believe in ESP when you're dealin' with a master thief
Headlines scream he's been missing two weeks
Rachel said when we find him
We can cure him, we can make him better
[Verse 7]
Raise him from the dead, unsolved child murder
Raise him from the dead, unsolved child murder
