Eric Bachmann - Masters of the Deal lyrics

At the scene Of the slow crime Of the century Wanda Jean awoke Attached to two IVs Lost her name In a shell game To the masters of the deal For the sanctioned closure And the governor's seal By the trains On the east side Near an oil refinery Marvin Lee took hold Of a snitch and let him bleed So betrayed In a shell game Where the jury all agreed Marvin Lee's a ghost Attached to two IVs So what if they're wrong? So what if they're right? Let Lenny live? Or let Lenny die? What should be an old relic by now Should never have been From a tree By a small stream In a trifling Texas town [?] When they shot poor Johnny down Duly framed In a shell game So the truth was not revealed For the sake of closure For the masters of the deal So what if they're wrong? So what if they're right? Let Lenny live? Would you let Lenny die? What should be an old relic by now Should never have been The South is a ghost A ghost is a lie Hara**ing the roads And hunting the pines Yes mine may be slow But that k**er knows Just how you feel How you feel Just how you feel (At the scene Of the slow crime Of the century)
