Abduction Lyrics

Where have all the children gone?
How long must the search go on?
See them on the milk carton
someone stole their only son

abducted from their place of play
it seems to happen every day
almost like it's done for pay
but who's to know and who's to say?

posted in the corner store
two missing children, maybe more
their age, their height, the clothes they wore
and just what the witness saw

most of them are never found
although a few will come around
in garbage or the river drowned
sometimes six feet underground

abduction
abduction
abduction
abduction

abductors must be really sick
something in their heads went "click"
a message from some late-night flick
or even some backwoods, red-neck hick

the schools are going on patrol
'cause now the thief is on a roll
they're adding up and taking toll
abductor must not have a soul

where have all the children gone?
How long must the search go on?
See them on the milk carton
someone stole someone’s son

abducted from their place of play
it seems to happen every day
almost like it's done for pay
but who's to know and who's to say?
