I've never known darker times
And I've covered the protests live
At the Hatchetfield kennel (ah-ah-ah)
I am Dan Reynolds (ah-ah-ah)
With Action News, weekdays at 10 PM
I hate to relay the news
But the football team might be screwed
Stay inside, watch your children (ah-ah-ah)
'Cause a losin' streak's comin' (ah-ah-ah)
A losin' streaks comin'
There's a man on the loose and he's got a gun
Better put out the APB
The psycho's killed two, if he gets me next, make it three
(If he gets me next, I could be three)
We're chasin' wild goose and we don't know how
Watch the blame go around
Man down, down, down, down
Who's swingin' the hatchet now in Hatchet Town?
Someone's got their hands on the hatchet handle
Swinging on the youth, it's a hatchet scandal
Careful or your folks will end up a cannibal's plate
It ain't great
You're better on the run than you are hiding
Suddenly this quiet town's exciting
I heard that the brains were soup
Their intestines were cut in two
So it's gotta be Donna
Yeah, it's gotta be Donna
Dan?
Reynolds was in the school
We all know he's the local mule
Selling drugs to our children (I'm a volunteer counselor)
We know he loves killing (I certainly don't love killing)
Bailey's on the loose and he's got a gun
And he's got a motive to kill
I'm a cop!
The case is closed, his description matches the bill
Fits the bill, he fits the bill
The killer's gotta go for what he's done
If you don't take him in, I will
Man down, down, down, down
Who's swingin' the hatchet now in (Hatchet Town?)
Lauter's got his hands on the hatchet handle (What, what, what?)
Swinging on the youth from his high mantle (I am the mayor!)
Careful or your kids will end up on Karen's plate (Excuse me?)
She just ate (How dare you?)
You're better on the run than you are hiding
Suddenly this quiet town's divided
Singing all these songs gives him greater windows to kill
But we're singin' still
Oh, I remember, before the lockdown
The sun was shinin' on our town
And our kids could walk the streets
Oh-oh, I remember the candy and rainbows
No hatred, only halos
And I knew what a life could mean
Until Jerry went on his murder spree
I knew it was Jerry!
It was Girl Jeri, that dirty girl
Let's kill 'em
Someone's got their hands on the hatchet handle
Swinging on the youth, it's a hatchet scandal
Careful or your kids will encounter a terrible fate
We're at Hell's gate
You're better on the run from this bloody-letting
Suddenly the show is real upsetting
It's looking like the hatchet sun is setting on us
Who can we trust?
Who's swingin' the hatchet now?
Can I shit or will I drown?
Man down, down, down, down (It's goin' down, it's goin' down)
Who stepped on our hallowed ground
In Hatchet Town?
