The Worst Crime

There's a lynching in the square

You will have to join us

Everyone's going to be there

We're setting up the truss

Once there was illusions

Now we have no excuses

They've got lost in confusion

So we're preparing the nooses

Oh we had so much time

How could we commit the worst crime?

Blame misinformation

Misguided leaders

A pathetic hesitation

Uneducated readers

For whatever reason

We now find ourselves in this

We are all charged with treason

And there's no one left to hiss

Oh we had so much time

How could we commit the worst crime?

We're the judge and the jury

The hangman, the convict

It's too late for fury

Our indictment was handpicked

So step out to the gallows

And accept your sentence

For being so shallow

You must pay a penance

Oh we had so much time

How could we commit the worst crime?

Oh we had so much time

How could we commit the worst crime?
