Why! Why! D.W.I?
Accident, another person die.
The innocent, lying in the dirt,
Broken bones, injured, hurt.
Twisted metal, broken glass,
Somebody skidded, going to fast.
Sirens screaming, blood in the street,
A child through the wind shield,
ejected from her seat.
Mommy survived, Daddy... dead,
Tiny tot, in a hospital bed.
Doctors not sure, ask of them,
Will the baby survive?
Chances...slim.
Why! Why! D.W.I?
Did the baby survive?
"NO!...Bye, Bye."
Medical staff, exhausted from work,
In the emergency room,
Some drugged-up jerk.
No injuries, no wounds to patch,
Got discharged, without a scratch.
Traffic signal. Stop sign,
To drunk to notice,
Paid it no mind.
Drugs, drinking, stinking-thinking,
Bleary eyes, double vision, blinking.
Driving while high, my oh my,
If you're feeling me,
We both want to cry.
Solution...jail?
NO!...out on bail.
Back to the bar,
Back to the car.
Back under the wheel,
Tires peal.
Out of control...
"CRASH!" Utility pole.
An alcohol fiend,
Dead at the scene.
A dangerous criminal,
Off your street,
You be the judge.......
"BITTER or SWEET?"

Author Notes
Driving while drinking, and intoxicated stinking-thinking, will do it to you every time.
