Текст (слова) песни: Elvis Costello - Soul for Hire
Hang my head and shut my eyes What kind of justice is this? Fool I was, I thought that you fought fire with fire Got to be more than just a soul for hire
Speaking for myself I wouldn`t take the fame, the fees, the glory For whoring in the practice of the law I make my case stop and stutter Soul comes unglued from the uppers Blood is seeping in the hole A mother`s eye is weeping
I see every human kind And still the truth is distant I see every evil men do and desire Got to be more than just a soul for hire
When it`s time to give protection To the ones who need it most, who are desperate I get distracted from my job Streams of ink and piles of paper What are the breaks? Jump out the window? Parole? Escape? Blood is seeping in the hole A mother`s eye is weeping
Hang my head and shut my eyes I can`t see justice twisted I see every evil men do and desire Got to be more than just a soul for hire
When it`s time to give protection To the ones who need it most, who are desperate I get distracted from my job Streams of ink and piles of paper To hand them over to dopers and kiddie-rapers corrupt in every twisted grudge And that is just the judge
Hang my head and shut my eyes What kind of justice is this?
