Music & Lyrics: J Stoneygate. Matt Steady plays Uilleann pipes on this track.

You can only get away with it for so long
Cutting corners
Taking advantage
Taking from the weak
Hoarding what was never yours
Moral bankruptcy

There always comes a time
When the birds come home to roost
There always comes a time
When the sorry facts reveal the truth

There always comes a time
When justice will prevail
When the scales fall back to balance
When the powerful will fail

May I tell you, you're on borrowed time
Like a prisoner on death row
You can only get away with it for so long
Until injustice is exposed

You can only get away with it for so long
