[00:18.310]	I live in a town called Millhaven
[00:21.710]	And it's small
[00:22.780]	and it's mean
[00:23.790]	and it's cold
[00:25.790]	But if you come around
[00:27.100]	just as the sun goes down
[00:29.550]	You can watch
[00:30.310]	the whole town turn to gold
[00:33.400]	It's around about then
[00:34.670]	that I used to go a-roaming
[00:36.660]	Singing La la la la La la la lie
[00:39.960]	All God's children they all gotta die
[00:45.700]
[00:46.460]	My name is Loretta but I prefer Lottie
[00:50.130]	I'm closing in on my fifteenth year
[00:53.810]	And if you think
[00:54.360]	you have seen a pair of eyes more green
[00:57.360]	Then you sure didn't see them around here
[01:00.750]	My hair is yellow and I'm always a-combing
[01:04.650]	La la la la La la la lie
[01:08.370]	Mama often told me we all got to die
[01:12.440]
[01:14.680]	You must have heard about
[01:16.480]	The Curse Of Millhaven
[01:17.940]	How last Christmas
[01:18.960]	Bill Blake's little boy didn't come home
[01:21.200]	They found him next week in One Mile Creek
[01:25.789]	His head bashed in
[01:26.940]	and his pockets full of stones
[01:29.160]	Well, just imagine all the wailing and moaning
[01:32.430]	La la la la La la la lie
[01:36.450]	Even little Billy Blake's boy,
[01:38.170]	he had to die
[01:40.390]
[01:42.830]	Then Professor O'Rye from Millhaven High
[01:45.979]	Found nailed to his door
[01:47.600]	his prize-winning terrier
[01:49.759]	Then next day
[01:50.850]	the old fool brought little Biko to school
[01:53.250]	And we all had to watch as he buried her
[01:57.900]	His eulogy to Biko had all the tears a-flowing
[02:01.130]	La la la la La la la lie
[02:04.390]	Even God's little creatures
[02:06.270]	they have to die
[02:08.900]
[02:10.600]	Our little town fell into a state of shock
[02:13.780]	A lot of people were saying things
[02:15.790]	that made little sense
[02:17.590]	Then the next thing you know
[02:19.220]	the head of Handyman Joe
[02:21.280]	Was found
[02:22.570]	in the fountain of the Mayor's residence
[02:25.500]	Foul play can really get a small town going
[02:28.530]	La la la la La la la lie
[02:32.450]	Even God's children they have to die
[02:36.890]
[02:38.410]	Then, in a cruel twist of fate, old Mrs Colgate
[02:41.980]	Was stabbed but the job was not complete
[02:45.560]	The last thing she said
[02:47.310]	before the cops pronounced her dead
[02:49.160]	Was, "My killer is Loretta and she lives across the street!"
[02:53.760]	Twenty cops burst through my door without even phoning
[02:56.800]	La la la la La la la lie
[03:00.600]	The young ones, the old ones,
[03:01.980]	they all gotta die
[03:04.520]
[03:09.730]	Yes, it is I, Lottie. The Curse Of Millhaven
[03:13.270]	I've struck horror in the heart of this town
[03:17.150]	Like my eyes ain't green and my hair ain't yellow
[03:20.910]	It's more like the other way around
[03:24.110]	I gotta pretty little mouth underneath all the foaming
[03:27.990]	La la la la La la la lie
[03:31.820]	Sooner or later we all gotta die
[03:36.460]
[03:37.890]	Since I was no bigger than a weavil
[03:39.860]	they've been saying I was evil
[03:41.680]	That if "bad" was a boot that I'd fit it
[03:45.200]	That I'm a wicked young lady,
[03:46.790]	but I've been trying hard lately
[03:48.740]	O fuck it! I'm a monster! I admit it!
[03:52.610]	It makes me so mad my blood really starts a-going
[03:56.410]	La la la la La la la lie
[04:00.240]	Mama always told me that we all gotta die
[04:04.350]
[04:05.910]	Yeah, I drowned the Blakey kid,
[04:07.680]	stabbed Mrs. Colgate, I admit
[04:09.570]	Did the handyman with his circular
[04:11.370]	saw in his garden shed
[04:13.470]	But I never crucified little Biko,
[04:15.700]	that was two junior high school psychos
[04:17.140]	Stinky Bohoon and his friend
[04:18.970]	with the pumpkin-sized head
[04:20.970]	I'll sing to the lot, now you got me going
[04:24.590]	La la la la La la la lie
[04:28.650]	All God's children have all gotta die
[04:32.980]
[04:37.850]	There were all the others,
[04:39.820]	all our sisters and brothers
[04:41.710]	You assumed were accidents,
[04:43.230]	best forgotten
[04:45.400]	Recall the children
[04:46.400]	who broke through the ice on Lake Tahoo?
[04:48.800]	Everyone assumed
[04:50.280]	the "Warning" signs had followed them to the bottom
[04:52.590]	Well, they're underneath the house
[04:54.570]	where I do quite a bit of stowing
[04:56.180]	La la la la La la la lie
[04:59.980]	Even twenty little children,
[05:02.100]	they had to die
[05:03.800]
[05:06.180]	And the fire of '91 that razed the Bella Vista slum
[05:09.670]	There was the biggest shit-fight this country's ever seen
[05:13.770]	Insurance companies ruined,
[05:15.540]	land lords getting sued
[05:17.470]	All cause of wee girl with a can of gasoline
[05:20.800]	Those flames really roared
[05:22.720]	when the wind started blowing
[05:24.760]	La la la la La la la lie
[05:28.410]	Rich man, poor man, all got to die
[05:32.409]
[05:37.900]	Well I confessed to all these crimes
[05:39.760]	and they put me on trial
[05:41.740]	I was laughing when they took me away
[05:45.520]	Off to the asylum in an old black Mariah
[05:48.700]	It ain't home, but you know, it's fucking better than jail
[05:52.940]	It ain't such bad old place to have a home in
[05:56.159]	La la la la La la la lie
[06:00.100]	All God's children they all gotta die
[06:05.270]
[06:05.870]	Now I got shrinks
[06:07.280]	that will not rest with their endless Rorschach tests
[06:10.590]	I keep telling them they're out to get me
[06:13.700]	They ask me if I feel remorse and I answer,
[06:15.780]	"Why of course!
[06:17.270]	There is so much more I could have done
[06:19.600]	if they'd let me!"
[06:20.740]	So it's Rorschach and Prozac and everything is groovy
[06:24.520]	La la la la La la la lie
[06:27.990]	All God's children they all have to die
[06:31.950]	La la la la La la la lie

[04:18.970]	with the pumpkinsized head
[04:20.970]	I' ll sing to the lot, now you got me going
[04:24.590]	La la la la La la la lie
[04:28.650]	All God' s children have all gotta die
[04:32.980]
[04:37.850]	There were all the others,
[04:39.820]	all our sisters and brothers
[04:41.710]	You assumed were accidents,
[04:43.230]	best forgotten
[04:45.400]	Recall the children
[04:46.400]	who broke through the ice on Lake Tahoo?
[04:48.800]	Everyone assumed
[04:50.280]	the " Warning" signs had followed them to the bottom
[04:52.590]	Well, they' re underneath the house
[04:54.570]	where I do quite a bit of stowing
[04:56.180]	La la la la La la la lie
[04:59.980]	Even twenty little children,
[05:02.100]	they had to die
[05:03.800]
[05:06.180]	And the fire of ' 91 that razed the Bella Vista slum
[05:09.670]	There was the biggest shitfight this country' s ever seen
[05:13.770]	Insurance companies ruined,
[05:15.540]	land lords getting sued
[05:17.470]	All cause of wee girl with a can of gasoline
[05:20.800]	Those flames really roared
[05:22.720]	when the wind started blowing
[05:24.760]	La la la la La la la lie
[05:28.410]	Rich man, poor man, all got to die
[05:32.409]
[05:37.900]	Well I confessed to all these crimes
[05:39.760]	and they put me on trial
[05:41.740]	I was laughing when they took me away
[05:45.520]	Off to the asylum in an old black Mariah
[05:48.700]	It ain' t home, but you know, it' s fucking better than jail
[05:52.940]	It ain' t such bad old place to have a home in
[05:56.159]	La la la la La la la lie
[06:00.100]	All God' s children they all gotta die
[06:05.270]
[06:05.870]	Now I got shrinks
[06:07.280]	that will not rest with their endless Rorschach tests
[06:10.590]	I keep telling them they' re out to get me
[06:13.700]	They ask me if I feel remorse and I answer,
[06:15.780]	" Why of course!
[06:17.270]	There is so much more I could have done
[06:19.600]	if they' d let me!"
[06:20.740]	So it' s Rorschach and Prozac and everything is groovy
[06:24.520]	La la la la La la la lie
[06:27.990]	All God' s children they all have to die
[06:31.950]	La la la la La la la lie
[06:35.440]	I' m happy as a lark and everything is fine
[06:39.180]	La la la la La la la lie
[06:42.630]	Yeah, everything is groovy and everything is fine
[06:46.140]	La la la la La la la lie
[06:49.750]	All God' s children they gotta die
