Climb that ladder walk that line Do what we say and you'll be just fine Count your money don't count on me I'll be there laughing basking my luxury Stay in your world God knows I stay in mine Drink your poison while I drink my wine I said I'm masquerading as someone who cares I'll be there when they push you Down those golden stairs Do your dirty work But don't come crying to me Sister Justice She ain't blind she just don't want to see Here on the island every man's an island
And every day is judgement day Don't come crying to me Tears in your coffee dirt in your dreams The rich get richer while the poor man screams Got the boys in battle face down in the mud On foreign soil trading oil for blood Do your dirty work But don't come crying to me Sister Justice Don't dirty me up I see you in the frozen rain Don't dirty me up I don't understand your pain Don't dirty me up But I fear what I can't explain
