allister - peremptory challenge lyrics

[verse 1]
so let’s shed some light
on a problem that you’ll find
all across appellate lines
that celebrates racial divide

[verse 2]
it’s all a sham
an attorney’s master plan
like a parlor trick we’ll stand
and watch them convict americans
[pre+chorus]
now the prosecution’s got a dirty trick up their sleeve
they’re just waiting for one more round
while corruption by the judge is a permanent fixture
how can this all be allowed?

[chorus]
it’s a peremptory challenge, let me strike you from this pool
peremptory challenge, i’ll dismiss you from this room
peremptory challenge, let me strike you from this pool
’til it’s an all white jury box tonight

[verse 3]
did we win the fight
back in 1985
when the justices opined
that discrimination’s never right

[verse 4]
but some will say
it’s the price we have to pay
to ensure equality
in this f+cking system’s flawed design

[pre+chorus]
now the prosecution’s got a dirty trick up their sleeve
they’re just waiting for one more round
while corruption by the judge is a permanent fixture
how can this all be allowed?
[chorus]
it’s a peremptory challenge, let me strike you from this pool
peremptory challenge, i’ll dismiss you from this room
peremptory challenge, let me strike you from this pool
’til it’s an all white jury box tonight

[outro]
a jury box tonight
a jury box tonight
’til it’s an all white jury box tonight
