lyrics

Forgotten memories remembered,
I've wrote so many names since last December.
I've seen faces, judged cases,
Laid waste and swept out traces of sin,
Drugs, murderers, and prostitution.
I figured out the answer; I know the solution.
But it's a secret, see. Nobody knows 'cept for me.
So sorry, I can't tell ya.
Then again, lean in, and start listenin'.
Smile, say cheese, and I've already won.
First name, Last name, paper, pen; done!

I'll open up my conductor's score,
Raise my baton and make you all move down to the dance floor.
Rhythm pounds through your heart, soul, and mind.
One step off tempo and the chord is mine.

Hiding in the streets wasn't difficult to master.
By my second try, I could write a little faster.
It became a breeze, I would scribble with ease.
I was people pleasin' all the while plannin' a reason,
If I was ever in need of an alibi, for anyone who had the guts to question why
I have to intervene to keep the law alive.
I refuse to sit back. I am justice, revived!
Yeah, that's right; cry out in jubille,
Your prayers shall be heard, you will have victory.
Now if you all would follow me,
I happen to know the way to glory.

I'll open up my conductor's score,
Raise my baton and make you all move down to the dance floor.
Rhythm pounds through your heart, soul, and mind.
One step off tempo and the chord is mine.

Suddenly, your body goes into a convulsion.
You trash around the floor till you can't move from exhaustion.
(kira laugh) My word is law
(kira laugh) A righteous, unforgiving maul of my will
shredding evil to the core
Regardless of emotion and regardless of the gore
Left behind in my wake
A lifeless shell of grief and past mistakes
Innocents will die, there's no doubt about it
Sacrifice; give your life. Submit and commit
Go ahead, spit your wits, dub me a hypocrite
I've got the world on my side, make you a dimwited culprit.

I'll open my conductor's score,
Raise my baton and make you all move down to the dance floor.
Rhythm pounds through your heart, soul, and mind.
One step off tempo and the chord is mine.

The Master Maestro of them all.
I was just first seat, when I answered the call.
No dissonance is heard nowadays,
'cause I'm killng injustice right away.

D.S. al Coda!
Rust-ICK!
G'night and sláinte
