"the truth has not been in your courtroom
never has been in your courtroom
all you have is confusion in your courtroom
why do i have to stand and take the blame for your sins again?
i've spent my life in jail,
paying for you,
so that you could ride your bicycle,
have your birthday parties,
have what you call a life
you know, i never had a life
i don't even know what life is, you know:
i go to the desert,
i'm not even allowed to live in your desert
i'm no good for anything except to be used,
as your scapegoat
i'm used
every day of my life,
i've been used
when I haven't been used,
and I have been on the - on the street,
i've been chased,
robbed,
harassed,
pushed,
kicked,
my ribs have been broken
you know,
the same man that gives you a traffic ticket
is the same guy that knocks my brains out
he figures just because he's the man
nobody's gonna say anything
my daddy's not a congressman,
a doctor,
or a lawyer
... under the door
... sneaking
... sneaking everywhere
everything is sneaky up around Sneakyville
... has to be sneaky, and it's even a shame to sneak
... such an evil nasty thing
you gotta sneak to get to the truth
the truth is condemned ...
the truth has been in your reservation,
building your railroads,
emptying your garbage
the truth is in your jails,
and the young lads starting your courts or your congress
where the old sit judgement on the young
future of old George on the...
eat your father
look at the madness that goes on
you can't prove anything that happened yesterday
now is the only thing that's real
you can try to prove that Columbus sailed on that ocean,
but it's not the same ocean:
it's a different ocean
it's a different world
every day, every reality is a new reality
every new reality is a - is a new horizon,
a brand-new experience oblivion
a friend of mine
he's afraid of what he might have to do
in order to save his reality,
as I saved mine
you can't prove anything:
there's nothing to prove
every man judges himself
he knows what he is
you know what he was
i know what i am
we all know who we are
nobody can stand in judgement
like you're standing in judgement
it doesn't amount to anything
what they're doing is, they're only persecuting themselves
they're persecuting what they can't stand to look at in themselves:
the truth!
they can't stand to look at the truth in themselves so they persecute themselves
they're persecuting themselves every time they go on the freeway
they hate themselves
look at the signs:
stop,
go,
turn here,
turn there,
you can't do this,
you can't do that,
you can't,
you can't,
you can't,
this is illegal,
that's illegal,
everything's illegal
the police used to watch over the people;
now they're watching the people
the president doesn't represent the people;
he could be on the roadside picking up his children
but he isn't
he's in the White House sending them off to war
and you're saying i have to pay for this again,
and again and again
i've gotta pay for your sins
how many times have i gotta pay for your sins?
i'm getting tired
i'm getting tired"
