The Town Of Lincoln

Did you read the news today

About the town of Lincoln

They were told they'd have to pay

For the crime of thinking

Penalties imposed before the rot could sink in

I guess we've seen it all before...

I guess we've seen it all

From the docks a lone voice came

And the judges listened

"We will not play your games

Or accept your system"

"Have it your own way

But you will die in prison"

I guess we've seen it all before...

I guess we've seen it all

Did you read the news today

About the town of Lincoln

I guess we've seen it all before

They were told they'd have to pay

For the crime of thinking

I guess we've seen it all

With their backs against the wall

And the clocks a'ticking

I guess we've seen it all before

And as they left the court in chains

Ah, you could hear them singing:

"You're gonna see your cities fall

You thought you'd seen it all, right?

You thought you'd seen it all

You thought you'd seen it all, right?"
