Berni Armstrong and Bill White - THE JUDGE WILL GO EASY ON YOU

from Lower​-​Class Aristocracy by Bill White

/

lyrics

wafers scattered on the floor
like a drunkards crispy chips
the wine was splashed on pallid skins
sails of pirate ships

you fled the scene , quite like a ghost
across the grieving moors
chased by a vigilante mob
frescos of holy wars

a dozen marksmen could not hit you
one by one they fell
punctured through the window
of a stained-glass citadel

you stand among your enemies
who would flay you like a trout
were it not for the hand of justice
closing in on your hideout

drop pretences of innocence
your lies we can see through
admit your guilt and pray the judge
will go easy on you
