The Truth [Song]

THE TRUTH
By Shadow
Arranged by Art DeCoteau
Album: Mystical Moods

The Truth had a fight on a Saturday night
It was war in the town, the Truth was shot down
The witnesses failed to appear in the court
Bribing their ------- , the case was thrown out.

Money kill the Truth [oh yeah]
The trial was skewed [oh yeah]
Corruption was the jury
The verdict was "Not Guilty."

The Truth tried to prove Corruption was bad
But Money walked in, the results was sad
A big police man with a gun in his hand
Was in love with Money so he just didn't see.

Money kill the Truth [oh yeah]
The trial was skewed [oh yeah]
Corruption was the jury
The verdict was "Not Guilty."

The case was a flop, what a big cover up
When the judge saw Money, he became stupidee
The Crown Prosecutor, Corruption's brother
He didn't waste time, he sold the case for a dime.

Money kill the Truth [oh yeah]
The trial was skewed [oh yeah]
Corruption was the jury
The verdict was "Not Guilty."

Big fete in the place, whiskey by the case
The Truth was buried by deceit and greed
The wife of the Truth was so lovely and cute
They gave her some cash and the matter was crashed

Money kill the Truth [oh yeah]
The trial was skewed [oh yeah]
Corruption was the jury
The verdict was "Not Guilty."

A Note From The Gull

Thank you, Shadow.

"Patria est communis omnium parens" - Our native land is the common parent of us all. Keep it beautiful, make it even more so.

Blessed is all of creation
Blessed be my beautiful people
Blessed be the day of our awakening
Blessed is my country
Blessed are her patient hills.
