Lyrics
Shoes
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You prepare your shoes
To kick dirt in my face
Nearly no defense
For your fascist grace
You try to get me out
But I won't leave this place
Nothing to lose
You can't win a human race
There's no need to laugh
Don't be so amused
It's no joke
To get falsely accused
I didn't do no harm
I only cleaned your shoes
For that is what you asked
So why all this abuse
You say I caused this crisis
You know that's not the case
It's this failing system
That you don't wanna face
You try to blacken me
Well I didn't take your place
Nothing to lose
You can't win a human race
