19) I Plead the Fifth

Lyrics

I Plead the Fifth

(by Skeff)

 

I plead the fifth

 

My silence speaks

 

It´s gold, it´s iron

 

Like a goldsmith, like a blacksmith

 

I plead the fifth

 

Like a wordsmith

 

I shape the silence

 

With the words I break with

 

With the silence I sleep with

 

Like a sculptor I create a silent monolith

 

 

I plead the fifth

 

My silence, is the core, the pith

 

You tried, to make, me speak

 

But I pledge the fifth

 

 

 

 

You know, what I would say

 

But my silence, I shape, like clay

 

My words, I hide, like a needle, in a stack of hay

 

From you, I want, to get, away

 

You, girl, I now avoid, like a black, avoids, the KKK

 

 

I plead the fifth

I plead the fifth

I plead the fifth

I plead the fifth
