You sent your daughter

bpm 107 key Am

PROSECUTOR AND THEATRICAL CHORUS

Opening Riffs INSTRUMENTAL

V1 You sent your daughter on ahead

Put her in the frontline

Inciting havoc causing pain

A grave and solemn crime

V1A We don’t care what you reply

Our minds are made up

Corporation lawyers can

Organise a set-up

V2 Using our Colonial powers

We rarely hide our tracks

Our clan is the old school tie

We watch each others backs

SINGLE LINE 1 Stitching it up all round

CHORUS 1:

This one killed his wife

Used a carving knife

Claimed marital strife

Now he’ll be doing life

Husbands rather thick

Got a pretty chick

Taken to the nick

Guilty verdict quick

V2 A lifetimes work is all undone

Your future looking gloomy

Done the crime now do the time

Don’t like it / so sue me

V2A Justice is what we dish out

The day has come at last

Innocent we hear you shout

Now things are happening fast

RIFFS

It looks like you’re going down

Your guilt is overwhelming

Caught you in a shanty town

Evidence compelling

SINGLE LINE 1 Think you can get off now?

CHORUS 2 This one done a tort

Shame that he got caught

Tried to steal a car

didn’t get too far

This one’s in for fraud

Pilfered the bosses hoard

Unrepentant youth

Never mind the truth

EXTRA MEL 2

We’ll put you away / It’s your final day

Keep you here in chains / Never seen again

We’ll put you away / It’s your final day

Keep you here in chains / Never seen again

CH 3

Doing what we’re told / Die before we’re old

Still it’s a steady job / Got to earn a bob

Experts always win / stick the boot right in

Bad guys put away / collect colossal pay

LAST LINE Who’s the expert now?
