Talk is cheap
Money talks
Show it to me
And let me buy the lies at half price
The movement was passed
All objections were sustained
I was the only who abstained
But the motion was carried
Commotion in the streets
Protesters lying on the trail tracks waiting for the locomotive to come
Mistrial!
The tabloid business was in the black
The humanity department was in the red
And the guilty were in the clear
Even though the truth was out in the open
Behind closed doors the politicians, the judges and the lawyers shook hands and smile sipping on nefarious brandy
And now a murderer, a thief and a certified maniac are free to walk among us all and an innocent person who was at the wrong place at the wrong time is being put to death
Someone doesn't know how to add or subtract because the calculations of this case do not make sense
Or maybe it was planned by tactile suit and tie tyrants of law
Docile, dishonest
Yet, reputable
Coaxing in the courtroom
Dogs released on the rioting citizens outside
The rest of the jury's heads in the clouds
When a guiltless human being is facing the final curtain
The scandal is apparent because the judge has been know to enjoy ******* and young ******** clad women
On the surface I do not look like I've been driven up the wall
But I now fear of never waking up
The horror of unrest
I want to detach myself from this thing
These men jag their names into the wall of shame at the stag party
And allow three evil men go free and an unlucky man meet his end
I wish it wasn't all so technical
