Lyrics The Constantines

The Constantines

Justice

When your words won't do no justice

And you've been led by the tusk

To the aid of a friend who's down a busted

To a sister who's lost the lust

This is the Easter of your skin, son

This is the making of your tongue

You shock me

You shock me

You shock me

That eucharistic beatbox

Can take some shots

Darling, you delinquent

Oh, I'm shocked

When your words won't do no justice

And your time ain't enough

And somebody's calling on the same truth

That you've been long afraid of

These are the errands of mercy

These are the politics of love

You shock me

You shock me

You shock me

That eucharistic beatbox

Can take some shots

Darling, you delinquent

Oh, I'm shocked

These islands of flesh

Can take some shots

Darling, you're reckless

Oh, I'm shocked

I'm shocked
