lyrics

Put out the china for the criminal rich
Who poke their fingers into everyone’s dish
Back in the crime lab there’s no evidence
Implicating the criminal rich

Please make way for the criminal rich
Who trample blindly over everyone’s wish
insatiable drive to crash into risk
Who to thank but the criminal rich

Escape, escape from your miserable life
Escape, escape but as hard as you try

I dreamed we lived in the dark ages of old
Stuck in a hut somewhere we couldn’t unload
Hundreds of years gone by the same can be told
Spinning wheels in the same exact pattern

Escape, escape from your miserable life
Escape, escape but as hard as you try

Keep on complaining about the criminal rich
Who seek to gain no matter how much you bitch
Forever scratching an impossible itch
It’s all the same to the criminal rich

about

Jason Moody Chicago, Illinois

"Local musician Jason Moody has been riding the periphery of the Chicago indie scene for years, and I think he deserves a lot more attention than he gets. He's a songwriter who crafts well-structured pop songs, which makes them ripe for covering (check out Daniel Knox's cover of "Halcyon Days"). Moody has a way with melody and hooks. He's also got a lovely voice."
