elvis costello - soul for hire (45 alibis version) كلمات الأغنية

hang my head and shut my eyes
what kind of justice is this?
fool i was that thought that
you fight fire with fire
got to be more than just a soul for hire
speaking for myself i couldn’t
take the fame, the fees, the boredom
for whorin’ in the practice of the law
i make my case, stop and stutter
soul comes unglued from the uppers
blood is seeping in the hole
a mother’s eye is weeping

i see every human kind
and still the truth is distant
i hear every evil men do and desire
got to be more than just a soul for hire

when it’s time to give protection to
the ones who need it most
the good and desperate
i get distracted from my job
(streams of vagrant piles of paper
one of the verdicts
jump out of a window for no escape )
blood is seeping in the hole
a mother’s eye is weeping

hang my head and shut my eyes
and still the truth is distant
i see every evil men do and desire
got to be more than just a soul for hire

when it’s time to give protection to
the ones who need it most
the good and desperate
i get distracted from my job
streams of vagrant piles of paper
a hand to hold for the dopers and kiddie rapers
corrupt in every twisted grudge
and that is just the judge

hang my head and shut my eyes
i can’t see justice twisted
hang my head and shut my eyes
what kind of justice is this?
hang my head and shut my eyes
what kind of justice is this?
