The First Verse Is A Commentary On The Murder Of Kitty Genovese. She Was Murdered March 14th 1964 In NYC. Dave Marulli Supplies The Following About This Incident On March 13 1964 A 28 Year Old New York City Woman Gained World-Wide Recognition For Her Role In An Event Which Even Today Is Remembered By People Everywhere Creating A Legacy Still Held Up As An Example Of American Values Or Lack Thereof. There Can Be No Doubt However That Kitty Genovese Would Have Given All Her Worldly Possessions To Have Avoided The Global "fame" Acquired On That Friday The 13th That Gave To Her The Ultimate Horror Associated With This Symbol Of Bad Luck. Even Though 47 000 New York City Residents Have Been Murdered Since Hers Remains The Most Tragic Because 38 "citizens" Awakened By Her Cries For Help Watched As She Was Assaulted Not Once But Three Times Over A Half Hour Period. Not Only Did They Fail To Come To Her Aid They Also Failed To Call The Police For Help. Vincent Mosely Her Assailant Stabbed Her Several Times Then Left Only To Return A Few Minutes Later To Cut Her Up A Little More. During His Brief Absence These "decent" New Yorkers Turned Off Their Lights And Went Back To Sleep Only To Be Awakened Again By This Second Assault A Scene Repeated A Third Time After Which She No Longer Needed The Assistance She Failed To Get The First Second Or Even The Third And Final Time. During Mosely's Trial Witnesses Made Several Statements But One Stands Above The Rest As A Symbol Of This Tragic Event And Is The Reason For Its World-Wide Infamy "We Didn't Want To Get Involved." No Surprise To Mosely For As He Said "I Knew They Wouldn't Do Anything - They Never Do." Hundreds If Not Thousands Of Studies Were Done About This Event And Book After Book After Book Announced The Downfall Of American Values Because Of It. One Study Concluded That On Average If More Than 4 People Witness An Event Nobody Will Do Anything. Each Person Will Say To Themselves "I Don't Have To Get Involved Since There Are Other People Here Who Can Help."

The first verse is a commentary on the murder of Kitty Genovese. She was murdered March 14th, 1964 in NYC. Dave Marulli supplies the following about this incident:
On March 13, 1964, a 28 year old New York City woman gained world-wide recognition for her role in an event which even today is remembered by people everywhere, creating a legacy still held up as an example of American values, or lack thereof. There can be no doubt, however, that Kitty Genovese would have given all her worldly possessions to have avoided the global "fame" acquired on that Friday the 13th that gave to her the ultimate horror associated with this symbol of bad luck.
Even though 47,000 New York City residents have been murdered since, hers remains the most tragic because 38 "citizens" awakened by her cries for help watched as she was assaulted not once, but three times over a half hour period. Not only did they fail to come to her aid, they also failed to call the police for help. Vincent Mosely, her assailant, stabbed her several times, then left, only to return a few minutes later to cut her up a little more.
During his brief absence, these "decent" New Yorkers turned off their lights and went back to sleep, only to be awakened again by this second assault, a scene repeated a third time, after which she no longer needed the assistance she failed to get the first, second or even the third, and final time.
During Mosely's trial, witnesses made several statements, but one stands above the rest as a symbol of this tragic event and is the reason for its world-wide infamy: "We didn't want to get involved." No surprise to Mosely, for as he said: "I knew they wouldn't do anything - they never do."
Hundreds, if not thousands, of studies were done about this event and book after book after book announced the downfall of American values because of it.
One study concluded that on average, if more than 4 people witness an event, nobody will do anything. Each person will say to themselves "I don't have to get involved since there are other people here who can help." Read more on Last.fm.
