Iron Lady - Phil Ochs[00:00:00]
Have you seen the iron lady's charms[00:00:11]
Legs of steel leather on her arms[00:00:17]
Takin' on a man to die[00:00:24]
A life for a life an eye for an eye[00:00:28]
And that's the iron lady in the chair[00:00:31]
Stop the murder deter the crimes away[00:00:39]
Only killing shows killing doesn't pay[00:00:45]
Yes that's the kind of law it takes[00:00:52]
Even though we make mistakes[00:00:56]
And sometimes send the[00:00:59]
Wrong man to the chair[00:01:01]
In the death row waiting for their turn[00:01:07]
No time to change [00:01:14]
Not a chance to learn[00:01:16]
Waiting for someone to call [00:01:21]
Say it's over after all[00:01:24]
They won't have to face[00:01:27]
The justice of the chair[00:01:29]
Just before they serve[00:01:35]
Him one last meal[00:01:38]
Shave his head oh [00:01:41]
They ask him how he feels[00:01:44]
Then the warden[00:01:48]
Comes to say goodbye[00:01:49]
Reporters come to watch him die[00:01:52]
Watch him as he's[00:01:56]
Strapped into the chair[00:01:57]
And the chaplain [00:02:03]
He reads the final prayer[00:02:05]
Be brave my son [00:02:10]
The Lord is waiting there[00:02:11]
Oh murder is so wrong you see[00:02:16]
Both the Bible and the courts agree[00:02:20]
That the state's allowed to murder in the chair[00:02:24]
In the courtroom [00:02:31]
Watch the balance of the scales[00:02:33]
If the price is right [00:02:38]
There's time for more appeals[00:02:40]
The strings are pulled the switch is stayed[00:02:44]
The finest lawyers fees are paid[00:02:48]
And a rich man's never died upon the chair[00:02:52]
Have you seen the iron lady's charms[00:02:59]
Legs of steel leather on her arms[00:03:05]
Takin' on a man to die[00:03:13]
A life for a life an eye for an eye[00:03:16]
And that's the iron lady in the chair[00:03:19]
