The girl in the dunes
The Girl in the Dunes
All day long she used to sing tunes.
Now they found her body in the dunes.
She was not skilled,
now they found her body, she was killed.
Raped stabbed and a slit throat,
maybe she followed the wrong road.
There will be no more singing tunes.
They found her body in the dunes.
Teenage boys,
who want to make girls their toys.
You don’t sing to their tunes,
your body will be found in the dunes.
The gangsters are taught to kill and maim,
even though they don’t know the victim’s name.
At 14, a daddy’s girl with her toys
was killed by animal-like boys.
The sound of a girl singing her tunes in the dunes.
Her mother weeps as she clutches her daughter’s toys.
She was violently killed by the gangster boys.
There are no more tunes in the dunes.
