twelve men broke loose i n seventy-three
from Millhaven maximum security
twelve pictures li ned up, across the front page
seems the Mounties had a summertime war t o wage
the chief t old the people they had n othi ng t o fear
said, "the last thi ng they wanna do i s hang around here"
they mostly came from t owns with long french n ames
but one of the dozen was a homet own shame

same pattern on the table
same clock on the wall
been one seat empty, eighteen years i n all
freezi ng slow time, away from the wo rld
he's 38 years old, never ki ssed a girl

we were sitti ng around the table, heard the telephone ri ng
father said he'd tell em i f he saw anythi ng
heard the tap on my wi ndow i n the middle of the night
held back the curtai n fo r my older brother Mike

see my si ster got raped, so a man got killed
local boy went t o pri son, man's buried on the hill
folks went back t o no rmal when they closed the case
but they still stare at their shoes when they pass our place

my mother cried, "the ho rro r has fi nally ceased!"
he whi spered, "yeah, fo r the time bei ng at least"
over her shoulder, on the squad car megaphone
said, "let's go Michael, son, we're taki ng you home."
