lirik lagu robyn hitchcock – legalized murder
in the hall of legalized murder
a young black man is waiting for his death
he killed a white policeman
or so they say, and the judges want his breath
in the hall of legalized murder
time goes by and no one does a lot
but they tested out the gas chamber
on a young black rabbit, at least he won’t be shot
they should give him a medal
isn’t our world based on murder?
they should give him a medal
isn’t our world based on crime?
in the hall of legalized murder
a young black man is strapped into a chair
and the warden says “we’ll get through this together, jim.”
but the warden doesn’t seem to have a chair
in the hall of legalized murder
there’s a lump of flesh that’s lying a tray
it’s been freshly killed but it wasn’t killed for eating
it’s been freshly killed to be dumped and thrown away
they should give him a medal
isn’t our world based on murder?
they should give him a medal
isn’t our life based on crime
