michelle billingsley - kangaroo court lyrics

Loading...

dearly departed, saints or whoever
we’re gathered together to decide who’s better off
cast your ballots on folded paper
with letters written in honest prayer

on my left’s a loaded weapon but a good man
his only gun hidden inside of his head
road on his boots, dust from strange sands
evidence of delta lands in salt on his collar

on my right’s a woman look a lot like me
no quarter given, no change received
but i, i mean, she’s as sweet as can be
your honor, her honor is squeaky clean
when she loves, she loves like the back of a hand

i’m asking you now, i petition you here
send him away for a thousand years
send him away for a thousand years
i’m asking you now, i petition you here
send him away for a thousand years
send him away for a thousand years

now, was permission granted, or permission kept?
whose lips last left that cigarette?
this cracked engine block of a man, dried horse sweat on his bare hands
and the wild eyes of a setting sun?
i’m asking you now, my sisters, my peers
send him away for a thousand years
send him away for a thousand years
i’m asking you now, my sisters, my peers
send him away for a thousand years

not for the crimes you could plainly see
but the ones he dared to keep from me
