Only a Monster Could Do That
(I'm sorry to say that this is a true story.)
A man did something horrible when his stepdaughter wet the bed.
He beat her violently and sadly she'd soon be dead.
He beat her with his fists and even with a baseball bat.
She was only four years old, only a monster could do that.
Her mother just stood there and didn't even try to stop the attack.
That sweet little girl was murdered and nothing can bring her back.
That situation was very disturbing and it outraged me because it was so grim.
People were waiting outside of his house because they wanted to get their
hands on him.
The police arrived and put that animal under arrest.
During the four years that the girl lived, the world was truly blessed.
