You got the lawyers and establishment You got the proof You got public opinion And it's all the truth You got first rate witnesses Straight from the scene So the only person guilty In this court is me
You got forensic evidence That never lies You got someone who says I'm guilty by my eyes You got lie detectors That you never use But I'm the only person here Who knows the truth
But you never here my voice Never listen when I talk Made your mind up in advance And I'm going to take that walk
Chorus: You based your case on circumstance That's all it was and ever will be And I never stood a chance The old boys network's stronger than me
My friends and relations Never gave up hope That one day you'd listen And admit you're wrong But the old school system Turns another blind eye And I'm so unimportant That I might as well die
And you never here my voice Never listen when I shout You put me in here long ago And I'm never getting out
(Chorus x 2)
Now the truth has been unearthed And opinion moves my way You can't hold me in this prison cell Not even for another day
And you have to hear my voice Have to listen when I scream Yet I wonder how you sleep But if you do I hope you dream (Repeat)
