John Mellencamp - Jena lyrics

An all white jury hides the executioner's face See how we are, me and you? Everyone here needs to know their place Let's keep this blackbird hidden in the flue Oh oh oh Jena Oh oh oh Jena Oh oh oh Jena Take your nooses down So what becomes of boys that cannot think straight Particularly those with paper bag skin Yes sir, no sir, we'll wipe that smile right off your face We've got our rules here and you must fit in Oh oh oh Jena Oh oh oh Jena Oh oh oh Jena Take your nooses down Some day some way sanity will prevail But who knows when that day might come A shot in the dark, well it just might find its way To the hearts of those that hold the keys to kingdom come Oh oh oh Jena Oh oh oh Jena Oh oh oh Jena Take those nooses down Oh oh hey Jena Oh oh Jena Oh oh Jena Take your nooses down Take those nooses all down
