Narrative song about a murder

LyricsShow lyrics

Berkeley Social Scene
SpoilerLyrically, this song tries to narrate two murders. First, Flower Moon who is murdered by some locals after going out drinking and dancing at a bar. Second, the narrator of the song, who is so upset that they get away with it, he has his own thoughts of murder.

Verse: Em x4 x4

She went out drinking with her friends
That should be where this story ends
She drank a bit too much
Let the boys think they could touch
Her name was Flower Moon
A hippy from Tuolumne
A little tipsy from the wine
She was smiling and feeling fine

C Bm C Bm
She only wanted to go out and dance
Wouldn't give those boys a chance

C Am G Bm
I would never consider murder
But after all that they did to her
I would never consider murder
But after all that they did to her

They waited for her outside
The bar was closing. Where could she hide?
She tried to quickly walk on home
But they wouldn’t leave her alone
They picked her up and knocked her down
In the forest with no one else around
Called her a dirty bitch
Left her laying in a ditch

They didn’t find her until late afternoon
The broken body of Flower Moon

I would never, never never
But after all that they did to her
I would never consider murder
But after all that they did to her

I confronted all those guys
Told them I thought they should fry
For all their heinous acts
These were merely facts
The one who did the most wouldn’t budge
His daddy was a judge
He wouldn’t let them try his son
They didn’t even go on the run

They got away without a mark
While the life in her went dark

I would never consider murder
But after all that they did to her
I would never consider murder
But after all that they did to her

A life was lost all too soon
Was the end of poor Flower Moon

I would never consider murder
But after all that they did to her
I would never consider murder
But after all that they did to her

This satisfies the non-optional challenge, a story of the sort I don't care to dwell on though I have read a lotta gritty stuff, brrr. I found this chorus catchy in that it popped back into my head at least once. I didn't quite care for the vocal delivery on this piece however, though everything sounds good, the instruments and mix etc.
