| [00:32.47] | Born at the end of a Minnesota freeze |
| [00:35.62] | Eldest child of Willy and Louise |
| [00:39.35] | His little sister died at the age of four |
| [00:45.16] | The family posed, led by Louise |
| [00:48.51] | Like right out of some kind of Rockwell scene |
| [00:52.09] | But Jake couldn't fake it anymore |
| [00:55.21] | |
| [00:58.12] | Nobody heard the hammer falling |
| [01:01.14] | Sensed that judgement day was calling |
| [01:04.45] | Nobody thought to fear the boy next door |
| [01:11.08] | Everybody loves to point their finger |
| [01:14.03] | They might as well have pulled the trigger |
| [01:17.45] | Nobody stopped to hear the boy next door |
| [01:21.41] | |
| [01:23.80] | Willy later said he really should've known |
| [01:26.95] | The boy spent too much time on his own |
| [01:30.43] | And what was on his mind, God only knew |
| [01:36.52] | One by one the neighbors went away |
| [01:39.87] | A gruesome little game Jake taught himself to play |
| [01:43.40] | His daddy always said, "find something to do" |
| [01:47.06] | |
| [01:49.43] | Nobody heard the hammer falling |
| [01:52.57] | Sensed that judgement day was calling |
| [01:55.73] | Nobody thought to fear the boy next door |
| [02:02.30] | Everybody loves to point their finger |
| [02:05.47] | They might as well have pulled the trigger |
| [02:08.64] | Nobody stopped to hear the boy next door |
| [02:12.53] | |
| [02:16.31] | One less mistake to think about |
| [02:21.59] | Cause no one read the writing on the wall |
| [02:28.69] | So much for case 1239 |
| [02:34.40] | Covered up, curled up in a ball |
| [02:39.03] | |
| [03:06.42] | One little page in the history of crime |
| [03:10.01] | Lawyers made a fortune for their time |
| [03:13.15] | Seems an explanation was never found |
| [03:19.13] | And I hope this tale won't be misunderstood |
| [03:22.64] | Things ain't the same in every neighborhood |
| [03:26.25] | But before you go to sleep tonight |
| [03:29.28] | |
| [03:32.60] | Look around |
| [03:34.09] | |
| [03:35.77] | Nobody heard the hammer falling |
| [03:39.14] | Sensed that judgement day was calling |
| [03:42.30] | Nobody thought to fear the boy next door |
| [03:48.87] | Everybody loves to point their finger |
| [03:51.99] | They might as well have pulled the trigger |
| [03:55.24] | Nobody stopped to hear the boy next door |
