lyrics

One more word and that will be enough
One wrong move and you'll be in cuffs
You will cry and you will plea
You must learn to not test me
Never ever speak your mind
Swallow down my endless lies
Court order this and court order that
You are poor and now entrapped
I'll decide whatever's your crime
Watch your dollars turn to dimes

You'll empty your pockets, empty them for me
For my masters overflows with greed
Empty your pockets, empty them for me
For now it is your turn to be unseen

My injustice can't be seen
Forever justified my schemes
Sovereign truth are my words
You've a voice that can't be heard
Stalk you in the dead of night
Strip you of your civil rights
Hidden behind a shield of gold
Our wretched tales ever untold
The weight of the gavel has taken its toll
Unwillingly falling into their hold

You'll empty your pockets, empty them for me
For my masters overflows with greed
Empty your pockets, turn them inside out
Hand over all you can't live without

Empty your pockets, to these times pay heed
Believe your masters are not whom they seem

Comme d'habitude, j'ai bien du mal à choisir une "favorite track" avec ce groupe de Trashgrass qui excelle dans son domaine. Mais là, j'ai réussi à me décider finalement. XD EklektikTrip

As much as I like the current line up, I do miss the dynamic that Marissa's voice added to the band. Plus, she's one of the better washboard players out there. Terry Aston
