Joey tried to make me do it,
it wasn't even my fault,
I looked at him all wide eyed
and accepted his assault.
It wasn't me that disobeyed,
all my ways are true,
I heard Joey's plan to kill
and I didn't know what to do.
Joey tells a lot of lies
and tries to place the blame,
it wasn't me that did it,
it's only a part of his game.
It wasn't me harassing
and making fun of another,
Joey did it all himself,
he even tried to smother.
Joey is out of control
in the way he acts,
it isn't me that does it all,
he even plans knife attacks.
Joey should be put away
before he tries to kill,
he is awful in his ways
looking for a thrill.
Joey needs to change
and start acting better,
he just sent a death threat
in a hateful letter.
Beware the troubled mind,
Joey isn't even real,
his voice is often there
where the heart can't feel.
