The Lash

The cards fall where they're meant to be
Enterprise or austerity
The whip hand as it comes to me
The lash

It's writ large in your DNA
The deck stacked in this power play
The mute voice has the most to say
The lash

Hey
I'm glad I'm living on the right side of town
Right side of town, yeah
Hey
I'm glad I'm living in the right time
The right time
Hey
I'm glad I'm living on the right side of town
Right side of town, yeah
Hey
I'm glad I'm living in the right time The right time

And this ship is on fire
No smoke yet here, but the lower decks are an inferno
The calls for water go unheeded
While the captain and officers
Drown themselves in wine

Hey
I'm glad I'm living on the right side of town
Right side of town, yeah
Hey
I'm glad I'm living in the right time
The right time

Hey
I'm glad I'm living on the right side of town
Right side of town, yeah
Hey
I'm glad I'm living in the right time
The right time
One response when they call
The lash
Live their lives in our thrall
The lash
Beaten, broken and small
The lash
Watch them go to the wall
The lash
Turn our backs on them all
The lash
No relief as they haul
The lash
Let them lie where the fall
The lash
The lash, the lash, the lash, the lash
The la-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-ash
