Corrido Twelve Heads in a Bag - The Krayolas
Twelve heads in a bag left on the side of the road
Found in a country god no longer knows
Twelve heads in a bag I swear I read it yesterday
Buried like the others on page 27A
Twelve heads in a bag lost count to my dismay
Fifty-three hundred must have all got in the way
Some of them down on the pass in old Guerrero state
Where one mans back porch is anothers graveyard fate
Da-da-dum da-da-dum da-da-dum
Twelve heads in a bag screaming out
What did they do
Wrapped up like garbage
Be thankful it ain't you
Found a few in Chiapas down in Juarez too
Where the girls lost are faceless
And the killers where no shoes
Twelve heads in a bag pending family notification
Short military haircuts cartel retaliation
For every one you take
The note said man well take ten
On the road into this city the machete always wins
Da-da-dum da-da-dum da-da-dum
Twelve heads in a bag eight soldier barely boys
Tortured and shot up boys will be boys
Oh the Mexican authorities were offended or so they say
At the sight of a cartoon that ran on Christmas day
Da-da-dum da-da-dum da-da-dum
