If you can’t speak out against this kind of thing, a crime that’s so unjust Your eyes are filled with dead men’s dirt, your mind is filled with dust Your arms and legs they must be in shackles and chains, and your blood it must refuse to flow For you let this human race fall down so God-awful low
Got my amp back and I had to choose a record to play first up. This was it. This one has, as Cynthia Gooding said, "some lines in it that'll make you stop breathing"
