about
This track is about the sham of a trial they gave Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti, which led to their execution in 1927. Intro excerpt is from "To the Workingmen of America" Published in an 1884 issue of The Alarm.
lyrics
blind convictions, clouded opinions
a picture painted with some broad stroke decisions
humility gleaned when the shameful smoke clears
and arrogance shed for a life lived in fear
a fine example of justice dismantled
and ravaged by hawks
till it works for the anglo-american policy
bound, gag and jail
we worked so hard to to prosper to let the law
stop our prevail
it might not be publicized
but intolerance trumps reason most all of the time
xenophobic and thirsty for blood
we created a monster that seeks it from us
too many times it gets blown out of proportion
through tacit coercion
we'll start the show once everybody knows their part
not in america, but underneath it
the weight of a country ordained to the weakest
while men so deserving of gods given glory
crusade for the right to exploit the abhorrent
shrug off the pleas for peace
give into empathy
when foreign people speak
don't kick them in the teeth
nationalism is a danger to most
watch it poison the people who
constantly choose to be host
it might not be publicized
but intolerance trumps reason most all of the time
xenophobic and thirsty for blood
we created a monster that seeks it from us
too many times it gets blown out of proportion
through tacit coercion
we'll start the show once everybody knows their part
playing into the madness, fueled by yer ignorance
help the persecuted and the victim
because they will be your better friend
you have a choice use yer voice to proclaim
i won't be used to achieve yer end
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
