Driver Unknown



Screech of car tyres on a Saturday night
Sickening thud makes me turn on the light
Pick up the phone, dial an ambulance quick
They’ll let cops know someone’s been hit

Go to the road, see a catastrophe
Body on bonnet, smashed through windscreen
Car door is open and engine is on
Whoever did this has already gone

Shattered bone
Broken home
Police report driver unknown

Cars must throw punches ‘cause this looks a brawl
Mounted the kerb and crashed into a wall
Lying limp with a smashed in head
No blood is bleeding, he’s already dead

Shattered bone
Broken home
Police report driver unknown

That accidents happen does not sound right
When they’re avoided with proper foresight
How can you hope to make sense of this scene?
Drunken driver of a brutal machine

Shattered bone
Broken home
Police report driver unknown
