Tema
Una crítica mordaz a los sistemas judicial y político modernos, sugiriendo que la **justicia está a la venta** y a menudo sirve a la prensa o a venganzas personales en lugar de a la verdad. La frase **'Patea la silla'** se refiere a una ejecución, destacando las consecuencias letales de un sistema defectuoso donde incluso los jurados están comprometidos.
Letra
Dawn breaks evenly today, on the truth and the lie
All rise, court's in session, we're hanging someone high
Justice means nothing today, now that the courts are for sale
Pick a crime from the menu, pick a sentence and defend you
And pay up the down payment called bail, the system's for sale
Kick the chair, the rope's tight
Just like one quick wrench, the tooth is out
Friend or foe, I gotta hang 'em dead, or they'll come back around
The court's wrong when it keeps track of victories and defeats
The press that never rest, just waits for somebody's soul they can eat
Justice means nothing today, now that the jury's for sale
Guilty or not, the verdict's a lie, you're going to jail, the system has failed
