Hang 'Em High
Kid Capri Lyrics

Good evening, this is Dee Joseph for WBIZ radio
The report is on and Dee Joseph will be presenting the case

This just in - police officials report that a six year old girl was found raped today
A six-year-old girl has been raped and the police have been notified.

The girl's stepfather is the key suspect in the case
The police have identified the stepfather of the girl as the prime suspect.

Details are still sketchy at this time
The police are still gathering details and information about the case.

Now back to the Kid Capri radio show
The Kid Capri radio show is resuming after the breaking news.

Hang 'em high, let him suffer, before he die
The perpetrator should be executed and should suffer before dying.

Cause in my mind I see that little girl cry
The artist cannot forget the image of the girl crying.

She was abused, misused, and even sodomized
The girl had to suffer abuse, misuse, and sodomy.

She didn't know - all of this was a surprise
The girl was too young to comprehend the severity of the crime.

So now she's scarred for life, nothin can change that
The girl will be traumatized for her entire life.

Being treated like some dog by some maniac
The perpetrator treated the girl like a dog and is a maniac.

What type of man would want to do that to a six year old
Who could commit such a heinous crime towards a mere six-year-old girl?

out of all of these women that the world hold?
With so many women in the world, why did he choose a six-year-old girl?

You coulda went to a nightclub and met a chick
The perpetrator could have gone to a nightclub to find a lady.

Black or white, Puerto Rican, you coulda picked
He could have picked any woman of any race.

Bought her a drink, took her home, and maybe got some
He could have bought her a drink and taken her home, where they could have consensual sex.

But you'd rather rape a baby and you think it's fun?
Why did the perpetrator enjoy raping an innocent girl?

Now you're goin to jail, death row I hope
The perpetrator should go to jail and, hopefully, be on death row.

Before the rope when you get there, your boots'll smoke
Before getting hung, he'll have to wait, and those close to him will suffer.

My name is Kid Capri I want to say this to y'all
Kid Capri explains what he wants to say to everyone.

Any man that rapes a woman is not a man at all
Any man that rapes a woman is not deserving of being called a man.

Especially a little girl that don't know nothin about that
Especially a small girl that doesn't know anything about such crimes.

rape, man you're a maniac
Raping someone makes one a maniac.

So now you're locked in a cell, what good are you now?
Now that the criminal is locked up, what can he do for anyone?

No friends, no freedom, and no style
He has no friends, no freedom, and will lose his style.

Word to duke you're gettin stuck like a blister
You're getting stuck like a blister; causing an unpleasant effect.

Just for instance, that coulda been my sister
The girl could have been his sister, and he feels traumatised due to the incident.

Be glad the cops got to you before I got to you
The police caught the perpetrator before the artist could've hurt him.

It's a shame for a girl to be so scared
It's disheartening that the girl is so frightened.

that when she walk down the block, her life is dead
That just walking on the block is like putting an end to her life.

Can't jog down the street, after dark
She can't even jog alone on the streets, especially after dark.

Take a look at what happened, in Central Park
He is drawing attention to a similar Central Park incident.

A girl is runnin, while some bum is bummin
While a girl was running, someone was leering at her.

The only thing he's thinkin about is cumin
The person is thinking about ejaculating instead of helping the girl.

He gets his rocks off, now he feels like a man
After fulfilling his desires, the man thinks he's powerful.

Then he kills her, and steps off, but understand
After raping her, he kills her and then escapes.

what goes around, comes right back around
The wrong one does always come back to the wreaker.

And when he's found, he's gonna get a beatdown
He will face punishment when caught and will be beaten up.

He tried to skip town, headed for the Northbound
He tried escaping north-bound.

Got no money so he steals and gets shot down
He resorts to stealing and ends up being shot.

But don't die, so now it's gonna get rougher
When not dying, the consequences will be even more severe.

Before you execute him - LET ME SEE HIM SUFFER
Before executing him, let the artist witness punishment on him.

Give him the chair, shoot him down, let him die
The artist orders that the criminal should be electrocuted by the infamous chair.

Better yet, huh, hang 'em high..
Or he should be hanged high

This just in - police officials report that the suspect in the rape of a six year old girl has been apprehended, and has confessed to this outrageous crime
The police have caught the perpetrator accused of raping a six-year-old girl, and he has accepted the crime.

Let's hope they really hang this guy
The artist hopes that the judiciary will stand by its punishment of an execution in this case.

Kid Capri, Silver D and Money Mark - hang 'em high!
Kid Capri ends the song calling out the names Kid Capri, Silver D and Money Mark, telling to hang the criminal.
