Lyrics

[male

vocals] (

Talking

drum

rhythm

fades

in)

Temple

of

coins

Coins

are

tossed

here

and

there,

hands

are

patted,

conscience

is

sealed

and

signed.

The

gods

lost

its

savoury

to

the

bag

of

books

and

pot

of

ink,

because

coins

paid

for

it

and

weightier

bag

of

coins

zero

sum

its

savoury

and

swiftness.

Temple's

Judge

tossed

the

coin

and

asked

if

it's

the

head

or

the

tail,

better

still

if

the

bidder

wants

both

for

a

fee.

Justice

is

for

shopping,

just

toss

the

coins,

one

that

clings

most

carries

the

blind

lady

home

and

celebrates

lavishly

and

ravishly.

The

scale

that

weighs,

is

perverted

and

corrupted,

the

sword

had

been

stolen ,

it

only

comes

out

when

the

poor

man

is

to

be

sacrificed

on

the

table

of

Justice.

The

Poor

are

trampled

under

the

table,

the

rich

are

celebrated

on

the

table.

The

difference

lies

on

weight

of

the

coins.

The

gods

lost

its

savoury

to

the

bag

of

books

and

pot

of

ink,

because

coins

paid

for

it

and

weightier

bag

of

coins

zero

sum

its

savoury

and

swiftness.

The

jury

and

the

judge,

the

jungle

and

George.

They

sound

alike

but

not

the

same

anyways

but

all

behaves

like

the

latter

who

lives

in

the

jungle

where

the

strong

subdues

the

weak.

This

time

around

not

by

might

but

by

the

weight

of

coins.

Rapists

walked

through

the

temple

of

justice

unscathed,

thieves

walked

in

with

pop

and

pageantry,

looters

are

granted

executive

bail

that

last

for

ages.

The

weights

of

these

coins

are

heavier

on

the

Judge's

and

jury's

pocket.

Lies

win,

but

logic

is

supreme,

truth

is

an

orphan,

poorly

feed ,

so

had

no

voice

nor

coins

to

toss

around,

and

network

to

pat

around

in

other

to

be

heard.

The

gods

lost

its

savoury

to

the

bag

of

books

and

pot

of

ink,

because

coins

paid

for

it

and

weightier

bag

of

coins

zero

sum

its

savoury

and

swiftness.

Truth

died

too

many

times,

when

bag

of

coins

juggle

around,

bounce

around

tables,

buy

new

wigs

and

gown.

Pauper

has

no

brief,

the

poor

has

no

hearing ,

the

jury

and

judge

are

deaf

and

dumb

that

only

clinging

sound

of

bags

of

coins

could

cure.

Your

Honour,

i

want

to

buy

injunction,

how

much

is

it?

my

Lord

i

want

to

shop

for

Justice,

how

much

would

it

cost

me?

My

Lord

i

want

to

jail

this

farmer ,

how

much

would

it

costs

me?

Window

shopping

everywhere

for

a

pay.

Armed

robber

is

a

good

man

untill

proven

otherwise.

Right!

But

a

poor

man

must

go

the

prison

for

awaiting

trial.

Many

have

waited

and

wasted

years

like

forever

in

prisons.

It's

easier

for

armed

robber

with

bag

of

coins

to

walk

through

eye

needle

of

the

justice

than

an

innocent

poor

man

to

walk

through

the

door

of

justice.

The

gods

lost

its

savoury

to

the

bag

of

books

and

pot

of

ink,

because

coins

paid

for

it

and

weightier

bag

of

coins

zero

sum

its

savoury

and

swiftness.

Quote

all

the

books,

make

all

the

references,

display

all

the

precedences,

know

all

the

technicalities,

be

good

at

the

reading

of

the

constitution,

your

case

would

fail

if

there

is

no

coins

attach

to

the

knowledge

in

your

head.

In

the

days

of

our

fathers ,

temple

of

justice

was

sacred

and

sacrosanct,

the

gods

were

wise

and

swift

with

justice.

A

pint

of

dry

gin

and

a

piece

of

kola

nut,

that's

all

that

drive

equity

and

justice.

You

dare

not

walk

its

holy

ground

unscathed

if

you

are

guilty.

The

gods

lost

its

savoury

to

the

bag

of

books

and

pot

of

ink,

because

coins

paid

for

it

and

weightier

bag

of

coins

zero

sum

its

savoury

and

swiftness.
