Legalise It (The Making of Al Capone)
Steve Skaith
Lyrics
It was the making of Al Capone
And we are down the prohibition road again
History laughing in our faces
Farce and tragedy rolled into one
Can’t we bring some sense to bear?
Can’t we bring some sense to bear on this?
Can’t we bring some sense to bear on this?
Legalise it
So much money to go around and round
For politicians, policemen, warders and the rest
A head rolls bloody across a disco floor
‘Plata o plomo’, corruption or death
Maria’s full of grace and now something more
Sees the chance to raise her family up
Feeling sick as the plane comes into land
Hope the bag don’t break, pray to your Virgin, trust your luck
This is no stoner song
Is no hymn to getting wasted
But if something goes so very wrong
Must be time to change it
Must be time to change it
It was the making of Al Capone
And Joseph Kennedy too I hear
History laughing in our faces
Farce and tragedy rolled into one
Appears On
