Gone Jackals - Legacy Lyrics
December 61.My dads wages light.Still on that salaryWe, all four, could sleep tight.Right now if you drank fromThat very same well,Youd need a run of luckTo score a bed in a trick hotel.Is this the legacy ofToo much for too fewThat I see?The kind of legacy thatsTossin some good menTo their knees.The great societysMaligned concrete cageSits dead and vacant now -At least it kept out rain.With all those corners cutThe cracks grow wide and near.I heard some cash was savedBut where its gone aint clear..Who goes down next I dont know.I dont know nothin anymore.Tomorrows legacy thatsLayin in stateAwaits reprieve.I always thought that when a man goes downYou do your best to pick him up.But how can the milk of kindness trickle downWhen its syphoned off and cheats the cup?
