Broken Alabaster
I know you’ve have heard so many tales
Of influence and success
And foremost among them
Is that of Zachariah White
And I know that those stories
So polished and so sanitized
Leave out important details
As to how the story ends
So sit now and come listen
Cross your legs and rest your hands
As I sing a song and tell you
What happened to the Whites
Well the father Zachariah
The eldest there among them
Was meeting with a friend
When he met a grizzly end
On October twenty second
He went and met an axe
Straight to the head
Oh, they swung til he was dead
Oh, october nights
Oh, What happened to the Whites
His wife was named Mariah
She was set on fire
In her bed
Alive
She tried to reach the phone
But they knocked her prone
And poured the gas on top
Oh, how bright she burned
Oh, flames so bright
Oh, what happened to the Whites
Their first son was named Jake
He was driven to the lake
And they chopped off his head
With a sturdy blade
They tore him into pieces
And fed him to their pigs
And fed the pigs to dogs
Oh, feeding pigs and dogs
Oh, his death was out of spite
Oh, what happened to the Whites
Fiona was the daughter
Well a man, he went and shot her
In the chest six times
Out by her house
He saw her in the doorway
And he took his aim
And the bullets came
Oh, how the bullets came
Oh, she saw the muzzle light
Oh, What happened to the Whites
The second son was named Sylvester
A wealthy stock investor
Until they cut his brakes
And he went off the side
Oh, how well he died
Down a rocky hill
Really quite the kill
Oh, that rocky hill
Oh, the turn was tight
Oh, What happened to the Whites
The final son was named Sebastian
Oh the way they thrashed him
The lone survivor of the family
Met a grievous injury
They took a saw to his throat
And hung his body with a rope
And put his head in a bloody bag
Oh, they took it far away
Oh, what a horrid sight
Oh, What happened to the Whites
Oh, What happened to the Whites
They were alabaster
Alabaster
Alabaster white
Alabaster
Alabaster
Alabaster
Alabaster
Alabaster
Alabaster
Broken alabaster
What happened to your white?
Oh it was only right
