C'mon Bulky, that only works if you don't pay attention to the lyrics. It's a really sarcastic song about abortion, with some scathing lyrics that come across so heavy-handed you can't take it seriously. It's a chick coming to terms with an abortion, or being forced to. Whatever. It was on Here Comes the Zoo, which was the last album the original Local H had.

Which album is this one off of? I am a big 'As Good as Dead' fan and I also have Hamfisted. Is this from Pack up the Cats' or the newest one after the real Local H broke up?

I think it's a very deep song that about a number of things... I read it as diatribe against issues like abortion (Pretty baby / Never born), the disinigration of the family (Rats in the attic / Toys in the cellar), promiscuity (Egomaniacal, As you screw yourself into oblivion) and the shock one feels when they look at a disturbed world in which they've played some role in creating (You'll have to face it / On your own / Smashed on the pavement / Stunned in amazement / Everything you make comes crawling back to you / You can't believe it / You didn't mean it / But they saw you do it and they know your name). Very powerful song that, once again, can be read many different ways.

Ok, too late I realize that Toys in the Attic means you're crazy, so it's obviously a reference to that saying... Also I failed to mention that the murderer is testifying in court, hence "Hands on the Bible"
