There was a crooked man
|
He wore a crooked smile
|
He built a crooked highway
|
It ran for miles and miles
|
With the money from the Revenue
|
And sponsorship from Ford
|
But it barely holds together
|
With the goodwill of the Lord
|
|
In the penthouse of the baron
|
The little children sleep
|
Daddy talks to smugglers
|
While armed gorillas creep
|
Poison fo the great unwashed
|
Business for the Mob
|
Another teenage murder
|
It's trouble on the job
|
|
Now I see what I must see
|
The poor do time and the rich go free
|
You keep the faith and they keep the score
|
Is this what you are working for
|
|
A newsleak in the city
|
Another scandal breaks
|
Sex and drugs in City Hall
|
Someone on the make
|
Legal bounty hunters
|
Aim their lawsuits well
|
The victim talks to Playboy
|
Says I guess I'll go to hell
|
