Blackmail |
I tore the pages from the book |
To hide the money I had took |
Somebody said, hey, I won’t tell |
That’s if you cut me in as well |
It was blackmail |
When there’s a conscience it can’t fail |
Blackmail |
That’s when your heart and soul’s for sale |
I paid the money for a year or so |
Until the time came and I said no |
A man came round and pulled a gun |
I thought he’d kill me there just for fun |
I said, now, hey fool I repent |
But I won’t pay you one more cent |
I’ll pay my debt to society |
I’ll give the jury a guilty plea |
It was blackmail |
When there’s a conscience it can’t fail |
Blackmail |
That’s when your heart and soul’s for sale |
I paid the money, had no choice |
People, I felt sympathy of course (?) |
And it was blackmail |
It was blackmail |
