lyrics

This town’s full of gossip
People with nothing to think about
As I held him down my hands shook
Then I read about it on Facebook

He’s my son and I know what he needs
I know they’re talking about
Me
Me

Received the date for my appeal
If they think I’m gonna turn up and kneel
Well they can all think again
Victorian ruins by Victorian men

What I did on the bridge was for his good
Now there’s people who say I should
I should not
Be

Where do I derive my own pleasure?
At midnight, nine straw heads are warmly breathing
Monstrous justice heedless to the consequence
Innocent experience now sentences

One day they will redeem me
