citizen of uncivil law
 
so what to do
when faced with courts
believed corrupt
 
the arguments of lawyers
are reputèdly superb 
their clever pose
can talk
a jury into saying 
"the birmingham six
they did that bomb" 
when all they did was cards
 
it helps
was fixed
the evidence 
of course
no advocate
would aid in that
 
corruption
burns the soul 
once you've broken conscience
it doesn't die
 
even strangers note
a smile and reflex tick
 
you'll have no repair 
you can't depend on history to lie 
you'll never able calm
 
soul demands you
avoid corrupt
 
but if you stay away the court
aggressing credit pushers 
or local clockwork men
or chancers on a vampire trip 
will legal blag your property
 
golden showers
or freedom 
mister jones next door
or ghandi christ the buddha 
property or soul
 
which would you prefer
