The Rolling Stones – Heartbreaker lyrics
The police in New York City
They chased a boy right through the park
In a case of mistaken identity
They put a bullet through his heart

Heartbreakers with your forty four
I wanna tear your world apart
You heart breaker with your forty four
I wanna tear your world a part

A ten year old girl on a street corner
Sticking needles in her arm
She died in the dirt of an alleyway
Her mother said she had no chance, no chance
Heartbreaker, heartbreaker
She stuck the pins right in her heart
Heartbreaker, a pain maker
Stole the love right out of you heart

Oh yeah
Doo, doo doo doo doo
Oh yeah
Doo doo doo, doo doo
I wanna tear that word apart

Oh yeah
Doo, doo doo doo doo
Oh yeah
Doo doo doo doo doo
I wanna tear that word apart

Heartbreaker, heart breaker
You stole the love right out of my heart
Heartbreaker, heartbreaker
I wanna tear your world apart

Heartbreaker, heartbreaker
Stole the love right out, stole the love right out

Doo, doo doo doo doo doo
Ah yeah, you shot the kid, he had no chance
Doo doo, doo doo do
Ah yeah, Ah yeah, you stuck pins right in her heart
Doo doo, doo doo do
You heartbreaker, I wanna tear your world apart
Doo doo, doo doo do........

    This song was motivated by the NYPD killing of 10y.o Clifford Glover in spring of '73. The shame on us as we continue to let rougue cops get away with murdering children. Almost 60 years ago and the same keeps happening today. Tamir Rice was only 12, and his murderer walked.

    It's really heartbreaking that we can keep writing new verses to the song year after year. So many innocent people who didn't deserve to be killed by police or overdose, and it keeps happening, over and over. I wonder if things will ever change or if will just be more of the same.
