[Verse 1:]
Hey, neighbor, you're a hater man
You  got a wife and three girls doin' all they can
To  be happy within a small floorplan
And you're a vile man

[Verse 2:]
I can only guess what may have happened to you
To  think that violence is cool
Mainly  against those innocent few
That are forced to live with you

[Chorus 1:]
Yeah,  he beats his kids
When he should treat his kids
He throws a fit then hits his kids
He's an antiquated lunatic
That  beats and defeats his kids

[Verse 3:]
I heard them cry and I heard them beg
Your baby girl climbed around my legs
She looked me in the eye, heard her quietly say
"Can I stay with you tonight?"

[Verse 4:]
Your wife's petrified and won't stand up to you
Like it's what she's accustomed to
Another night of knocking back a few
Sees the cycles of abuse
Against his terrified brood
