>1 law for the officers

>2 bad you 3 know what it's 4
"2 Badge of Freedom what it's for?"
I am almost certain about this one, given the military allusions in the
previous two lines...
>5 for this awful dive
"5 for the sulfur dye"
That's what it sounds like to these Yank ears-probably
because of the "s" in "this" slurring into the next word
(which is the biggest bugaboo when trying to figure out lyrics)
>6 for the genetics
"6 for the jelly hicks"
>shrug<...
>1 for the conquered blues (?)
"1 for the carpet blues"
The first version is probably correct.
Deciphering Steve's lyrics is fun!
>shifting gears< Is this one of the most haunting
cuts ever penned by the Church or what? If MATS
consisted of consistently excellent stuff like this I
would have had no complaints whatsoever. We
shall see about AENT...
