No Peace For The Wicked |
| No peace for the wicked |
| No way, no how |
| If you’ve gone and done it |
| You gotta pay somehow |
| No use complaining about the hand that feeds |
| Now you know that it’s raining |
| How come you talk to me? |
| How come you talk to me? |
| Well, yeah |
| Well, your friends in high places |
| Won’t bail you out this time |
| With all your social graces |
| It’s like a pantomime |
| Feeling so uneasy |
| You can’t tell friend from foe |
| You’re always looking back to see |
| Who’s coming through the door |
| You sold protection |
| Fed the common fear |
| Took 'yes' for an answer |
| You didn’t see the tears |
| Collecting for the loanshark with the silken fist |
| Now you’ve crossed the 'company' |
| With the Judas kiss |
| They’ve got you on the list, yeah |
| You’re like a loaded heater |
| Just about to go off on the street |
| You need a baby sitter |
| To pick you up if you can’t stand the heat, yeah |
| No peace for the wicked |
| No way, no how |
| If you’ve gone and done it |
| You gotta pay somehow |
| No use complaining about the hand that feeds |
| Now you know that it’s raining |
| How come you talk to me? |
| How come you talk to me? |
| Yeah |
| Well, your friends in low places |
| Have tightened up the screw |
| They’ve made this town a nightmare |
| You’re trapped, what can you do? |
| The quality of mercy |
| Is really out of reach |
| Don’t call on the ones you peeled |
| Practice what you preach |
