+<poem>

+The Joy brings many things
+it cannot bring you joy
+sons of mothers huddle here
+man and boy
+swung the doors
+and human sewage swept inside
+where victims speak in whines
+and where the hardened cried
+I was sent here by a
+three-foot half-wit in a wig
+I took his insults on the chin
+and never did I flinch
+A swagger hides the fear in here
+by this rule we breathe
+and there is no one upon this earth
+whom I’d feel sad to leave
+You see
+we all lose
+we all lose
+What those in power do to you
+reminds us at a glance
+how humans hate each others guts
+and show it given the chance
-}}
+We never say aloud the things
+that we say in our prayers
+'cos no one cares
-==Personnel==
+Many executed here
+by the awful lawfully good
+but the only thing that makes me cry
+is when I see the sky
-* [[Morrissey]] - Vocals <br>
+Brendan Behan's laughter rings
-* [[Boz Boorer]] - [[Guitarists|Guitars]]<br>
+for what he had or hadn’t done
-* [[Jesse Tobias]] - Guitars<br>
+for he knew then
-* [[Solomon Walker]] - [[Bassists|Bass guitar]]<br>
+as I know now
-* [[Matt Walker]] - [[Drummers|Drums]]<br>
+that for each and every one of us
-* [[Gustavo Manzur]] - [[Keyboardists|Keyboards]]<br>
+we all lose
-* [[Producers|Producer]] - [[Joe Chiccarelli]]<br>
+rich or poor
+we all lose
+rich or poor
+we all lose.
