Andrew Bird - Capital Crimes lyrics

[Andrew Bird - Capital Crimes lyrics]

We're a fine institution
We're using a test to decide
Like some kind of sick solution
Who should live and who should die

If I let go of your hand, it would be murder
Standing backwards blindfolded at the
Top of the stair and you may wonder if I
I had assured her as the birds were
Making figure eights all around the square
If I let go of your hand
Stray from the laws of the land

Where's the shame? Where's the shame?
Where's the sense of shame?
Where's the shame? Where's the shame?
Where's the sense of shame?
Desert oceans keep on widening
It's been this way since the Pleistocene
Where's the shame? Where's the shame?
Where's the sense of shame?

Where's the shame? Where's the shame?
Where's the sense of shame?
Where's the shame? Where's the shame?
Where's the sense of shame?
Desert oceans keep on widening
It's been this way since the Pleistocene
Where's the shame? Where's the shame?
Where's the sense of shame?

Capital crimes
Nickels and dimes all across the floor
Ooh, oh, oh no vital signs, oh
You scored too high now you walk the floor
We'll meet on that fatal shore

Where's the shame? Where's the shame?
Where's the sense of shame?
Where's the shame? Where's the shame?
Where's the sense of shame?
Where's the shame? Where's the shame?
Where's the sense of shame?
