about

Inspired by a news report (one of many) about a man in Ireland who had been finally freed after having spent 20 years in jail for a crime he didn’t commit.
Just trying to get my head around what it must feel like when the
whole world comes crashing down on you, and the rest of your life while you try and understand what the hell people around you, are talking about.

lyrics

LYRICS

This guy gets stormed by the police, in the middle of the night, sirens blaring, red lights flashing the whole building gets assaulted, doors busted up, windows broken - gets pulled out of bed, being informed of his rights, handcuffed as he’s told that he is being arrested for murder.

Thrown in the back of a police cruiser and taken to the police station where he is “processed” fingerprinted, photographed etc.!

placed in an interview room with 2 chairs, a table and not a whole lot of ventilation nor light.

... a bit of a bind, now!
It seems this guy won’t be takin’ ‘’no’’ for an answer
You can show me those pictures till you’re blue in the face
I still don’t know what your talkin about,
I’m telling the truth

Red lights flashing, clubs head-bashing
Doors are smashing, forehead gashing
No one listenin’, Strangers shouting
constant questions, I’m not one that you want!
For the lack of an adequate alibi
I am the lucky one, My good fortune has won me a right to confession
As the hours are tortuously going by!
Out come the floodlights,
Not a minute of sleep nor bladder relief nor accession.

hours go by, it almost seems like “those jokers have punched-out and
neglected to tell the second shift about the suspect in interview room
number 1....” “.....I wonder if they can give me a note...”

How many men might have sat here before me
Lacking in luck and a credible story
Losing their minds at the hands of these cretins
Losing their lives in a storm of reckless abandon!

...reckless abandon

How many men might have sat here before me
Lacking in luck and a credible story
Losing their minds at the hands of these cretins
Losing their lives in a storm of reckless abandon

How many men might have sat here before me
Lacking in luck and a credible story
Losing their minds at the hands of these cretins
Losing their lives in a storm of reckless abandon

...reckless abandon
...reckless abandon
