The Punisher is Coming


With a little alarm I listened to the world news service that informed me about the infamous Punisher of Davao, a Philippine city, who is not only the city's mayor but also a television personality and also a man who likes to ride around his hometown on the back of a yamaha. his passionate focus has been to cleanse the city of crime and to do this he has employed thugs to kill any thing that breaks that law. man, woman or child. no matter how small or large a crime they all share the same fate.

this ridiculous set of words is a reaction to the horrid news broadcast and should be sung as to "The Teddy Bear's Picnic"


if you go down to davao today
you'd better stay in a pack.
if you go down to davao today
beware the blade in your back.
the punisher rides upon his bike
killing kids he doesn't like,
today's the day the punisher
kills your children.
if you go down on the streets today
you'd better not go alone
better not go on the streets today
better stay at home.
the punisher sets all the rules
then breaks their necks with metal tools
todays the day the punisher
kills your children.
