Lyrics

Watch as the big man knocks off their blocks
Run up the ladder but not far enough
Cheat the numbers, watch the games get tough
They've done the dirty work, dressed for respect
Into deep, couldn't pay your way out
Just owe him a favor, he'll use his clout
Double crossed, hot lead delivered
Politicians body floats dead in the river

Secret service, crimes highest court
Thompson bullet holes, shred into the suits
Under table oath, now in a pact
You'll get away with murder, when you're caught in the act
Holy rollers, contract blood baths
When fathers die they bleed their sons path
For the father, in gods name
The love of money warms the families' pain

Power brokers, black jack poker
Wearing piano wire chokers
The streets are scanned, the cops undermanned
Another city palm in hand
Shots ignited while sins cleanse in church
He sits by their sides as police sirens search
For his henchmen, they're getting away
Judges handshake, justice betrayed
