: Am I losing my mind or did DB post the lyrics to S&L on the board awhile back? Where did they go? I can't find them anywhere.

Here they are. They only reason I am reposting them is that I have found that posts seem to come and go as one pages forward and backward.  I tried using the search engine on here and got fatal errors.

Silver or Lead

Kirk had a moment of truth
(oh no!)
but he wiped it out like rabies
and posed like a winner on the evening news
while the governor kissed the babies
it's the only game in town
where the handcuffs make
that particular sound
where the money flows straight
from the highest ground
from the highest ground
oh yeah.

silver or lead
silver or lead
take the money or youre dead
or kinky pictures in your bed
she was young and she was underfed
at least that's what the memo said
somewhere between the lines

now me I've been around
I've seen a thing or two
and I never play with matches
I've watched in the clubs
all the Metro Thugs
buy ladies with their badges
the kind of scene you find in towns
where the mob moved in
and held their ground
and everywhere that smashing sound
that crashing sound

well

chorus

I am innocent
no matter what they say
I am innocent
you cant lay this off on me
you cant lay this off on me

out back trading laughs
with the bureau flacks
when bingo goes his beeper
it's his eagle-eyed son
his number one
the famous midnight creeper
"I just thought you might
like to know
what makes the governor's
garden grow.
We got some pretty pictures
and some video
maybe it's time
we ought to let him know"

silver or lead
silver or lead
take the money or youre dead
or kinky pictures
in your bed
she was twelve
and she was giving you ---
at least that's what the photos said
somewhere between the lines
somewhere between the lines
