The Murder of Liddle Towers
Unveiling Injustice: The Tragic Tale of Liddle Towers
Lyrics
Who killed Liddle?
Questioning the identity of Liddle's killer
Did you kill Liddle?
Asking if the listener is the one who killed Liddle
Who killed Liddle?
Continuation of questioning Liddle's killer
Police killed Liddle Towers
Stating that the police are responsible for Liddle Towers' death
Who killed Liddle?
Repetition of questioning Liddle's killer
Did you kill Liddle?
Repeating the question, implicating the listener in Liddle's death
Who killed Liddle?
Continuation of questioning Liddle's killer
Did you kill Liddle Towers?
Directly accusing the listener of killing Liddle Towers
Who killed Liddle?
Repetition of questioning Liddle's killer
Did you kill Liddle?
Repeating the question, implicating the listener again
Who killed Liddle?
Continuation of questioning Liddle's killer
Police killed Liddle Towers
Reaffirming that the police are responsible for Liddle Towers' death
Why did he die, or did they lie?
Raising questions about the circumstances of Liddle's death and the possibility of misinformation
I think he's dead, so a doctor said
Expressing doubt about Liddle's death, referencing a doctor's statement
He was beaten black, He was beaten blue
Describing the severe beating Liddle endured
But don't be alarmed, it was the right thing to do
Suggesting that the beating was justified
The police have the power, Police have the right
Highlighting the authority of the police to take a life
To kill a man to take away his life
Asserting the police's right to kill in certain situations
Drunk and disorderly was his crime
Stating Liddle's alleged crime of being drunk and disorderly
I think at worst he should be doing time
Expressing a view that imprisonment might be a more appropriate punishment
But he's dead
Confirming Liddle's death
He was drunk and disorderly and now he's dead
Linking Liddle's death to his drunk and disorderly behavior
Questions are unanswered
Highlighting unanswered questions about the incident
Policeman scared to talk
Suggesting fear among policemen to disclose information
Perhaps they are hiding something
Suspecting that there might be a cover-up or hidden information
Will my message get across
Expressing a desire for the message to be understood
Please tell me why, why did he die
Reiterating the need to know why Liddle died
Please tell me now, and tell me how
Asking for immediate information about the circumstances and methods of Liddle's death
Police have the answers
Asserting that the police possess information about Liddle's death
But they haven't got the right, to kill a man
Contesting the police's right to take a life
To take away his life
Reiterating opposition to the police's authority to kill
Perhaps I'm not to clever, perhaps I'm not to bright
Expressing self-doubt about intelligence
But I think your verdict was just a lie, a lie, a lie, lie
Expressing skepticism about the fairness of the verdict
Murder, murder, murder, murder
Repeatedly declaring Liddle's death as murder
Murder
Emphasizing the act of murder
Who killed Liddle?
Repetition of questioning Liddle's killer
Did you kill Liddle?
Repeating the question, implicating the listener again
Who killed Liddle?
Continuation of questioning Liddle's killer
Police killed Liddle Towers
Reaffirming that the police are responsible for Liddle Towers' death
Who killed Liddle?
Repetition of questioning Liddle's killer
Did you kill Liddle?
Repeating the question, implicating the listener once more
Who killed Liddle?
Continuation of questioning Liddle's killer
Police killed Liddle Towers
Final affirmation that the police are responsible for Liddle Towers' death
