they said: tell us who owns this place?
we said
you
they said: tell us, who runs this place?
but then we thought:
are they from down the road?
is this another trap?
they said: you're not being clear
you're not very clear
tell us who runs this place?
we said
power
they said: you're still not clear
tell us, who runs this place?
but then we thought:
are they from the back room?
are they from down the road?
is this the right word?
love?
but then we thought: it's always the same
that things won't change
we've nothing to lose
and so we agreed
we'd tell them the truth
they said:
you're free to go if you say that again
you're free to go if you say love again
tell us who runs this place
but we said
fear
that one word fucked their heart
dick witts
