“O Mother Justice where did you go?
You let the lawyers and the judges steal the show.
Laid down your scales,
Took off your fine dark blindfold.
Now you try to see the future,
But the past has not yet been told.
O Mother Justice, where’d you go,
Was your price paid up, paid up in gold?

What about the poor man,
And the children in the cold?
What about the masses left,
With nothing but their souls?
Should we lead them, should we bleed them?
Should we just leave them alone?
They may not be worth the effort,
These’s no money in their bones.

O Mother Justice, where’d you go?“

From the song, “Mother Justice” by Jack McGlynn
