Lyrics Open Up - Dispatch

Open Up

They were looking for me when I came to;
They were looking for me when I came back—
Said «hey you, you’re looking very suspicious.»
I said relax man, get off my back
I said relax man, get off my back
I, I, I, ain’t opposed to seeking justice
But you’re
Going about it all wrong:
The man you’re looking for does not exist
He’s just a figment of a higher man’s tongue
And they say
«Open up, we’re coming inside
You can’t run so you may as well hide
We’ve got the place covered from
Head to toe, head to toe
Open up, we’re coming inside
What’s it feel like to know you’re going to die
On the other side of the row?
On the other side of the row»
So they took me down to the gallows
And this boy, he say to me
«why do you smile, when the rope’s around your neck?»
I said I’ll tell you boy, when I get back
I said I’ll tell you boy, when I get back
«Hands above you’re head
Que le vaya bien—
Step out of line and we’ll fill you with lead.»
«How are we to know that you are not a liar?
(hey)
Don’t you see we have a job to do?
And our job is the law, job is the law—
You fit the description of a criminal crosser (hey)
We believe that he is you
And that is your flaw, that is your flaw»
