“Justice In A Cradle” appears both on Holcombe’s 1994 album, A Far Cry from Here, and his 1999 album, A Hundred Lies. The instrumentation/arrangement on each recording is slightly different, but the lyrics are the same on each.
[Verse 1]
Strong soap and lots of hot water
Behind my ears pound by pound
Before my eyes one moment to moment
Pages rockin' justice in a cradle
[Verse 2]
Stingin' knives for skillful good reason
Lovin' sweat on shiny metal tables
Stayin' life torn slow from sinkin'
Pages rockin' justice in a cradle
[Chorus]
Starch my shirt and raise my heart
Missin' faces blew outta paintin'
Black and white ain't enough to cover
Pages rockin' justice in a cradle
[Verse 3]
Catchin' hell payin' for answers
Skinny arms now wrapped around a rainbarrel
Pourin' slaughter for a swiss chocolate camel
Pages rockin' justice in a cradle
[Chorus]
Starch my shirt and raise my heart
Missin' faces blew outta paintin'
Black and white ain't enough to cover
Pages rockin' justice in a cradle
[Verse 4]
Strong soap and lots of boilin' water
Poundin' moments rockin' outta slaughter
Pages tearin' justice from the cradle
For the growlin' belly of the swiss chocolate camel
[Chorus]
Starch my shirt and raise my heart
Missin' faces blew outta paintin'
Black and white ain't enough to cover
Pages rockin' justice in a cradle
[Verse 5]
Unleash my eyes away from the belly
Pry my arms far far from the rainbarrel
Spit in the eye of the swiss chocolate camel
Pages rockin' justice in a cradle
[Chorus]
Starch my shirt and raise my heart
Missin' faces blew outta paintin'
Black and white ain't enough to cover
Pages rockin' justice in a cradle
[Chorus]
Starch my shirt and raise my heart
Missin' faces blew outta paintin'
Black and white ain't enough to cover
Pages rockin' justice in a cradle
Pages rockin' justice in a cradle
