[00:00.00]Iron Lady (LP版) - Phil Ochs
[00:11.12]Have you seen the iron lady's charms
[00:17.60]Legs of steel leather on her arms
[00:24.79]Takin' on a man to die
[00:28.14]A life for a life an eye for an eye
[00:31.72]And that's the iron lady in the chair
[00:39.30]Stop the murder deter the crimes away
[00:45.95]Only killing shows killing doesn't pay
[00:52.34]Yes that's the kind of law it takes
[00:56.62]Even though we make mistakes
[00:59.85]And sometimes send the
[01:01.89]Wrong man to the chair
[01:07.59]In the death row waiting for their turn
[01:14.10]No time to change
[01:16.56]Not a chance to learn
[01:21.11]Waiting for someone to call
[01:24.68]Say it's over after all
[01:27.36]They won't have to face
[01:29.21]The justice of the chair
[01:35.62]Just before they serve
[01:38.71]Him one last meal
[01:41.80]Shave his head oh
[01:44.18]They ask him how he feels
[01:48.18]Then the warden
[01:49.44]Comes to say goodbye
[01:52.65]Reporters come to watch him die
[01:56.22]Watch him as he's
[01:57.71]Strapped into the chair
[02:03.67]And the chaplain
[02:05.95]He reads the final prayer
[02:10.06]Be brave my son
[02:11.93]The Lord is waiting there
[02:16.54]Oh murder is so wrong you see
[02:20.20]Both the Bible and the courts agree
[02:24.09]That the state's allowed to murder in the chair
[02:31.89]In the courtroom
[02:33.92]Watch the balance of the scales
[02:38.20]If the price is right
[02:40.24]There's time for more appeals
[02:44.82]The strings are pulled the switch is stayed
[02:48.87]The finest lawyers fees are paid
[02:52.11]And a rich man's never died upon the chair
[02:59.48]Have you seen the iron lady's charms
[03:05.92]Legs of steel leather on her arms
[03:13.09]Takin' on a man to die
[03:16.35]A life for a life an eye for an eye
[03:19.95]And that's the iron lady in the chair
