[Verse 1]
All-white jury hides the executioner's face
See how we are, me and you?
Everyone here will need to know their place
Let's keep this blackbird hidden in the flue
[Chorus]
Oh, hey, Jena
Oh, hey, Jena
Oh, hey, Jena
Take your nooses down
[Verse 2]
So what becomes of boys who cannot think straight?
Particularly those with paper-bag skin?
Yes sir, no sir, we'll wipe that smile right off your face
We got our rules here, and you must fit in
[Chorus]
Oh, hey, Jena
Oh, hey, Jena
Oh, hey, Jena
Take your nooses down
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Someday some way sanity will prevail
But who knows when that day might come?
Shot in the dark, well, it just might find its way
To the hearts of those that hold the keys to kingdom come
[Chorus]
Oh, hey, Jena
Oh, hey, Jena
Oh, hey, Jena
Take your nooses down
Oh, hey, Jena
Oh, hey, Jena
Oh, hey, Jena
Take your nooses all down
Take your nooses all down
