lyrics

SLADE: What is your motto here? "Boys, inform on your classmates, save your hide" -- anything short of that we're gonna burn you at the stake? Well, gentlemen, when the shit hits the fan some guys run and some guys stay. Here's Charlie facing the fire; and there's George hidin' in big Daddy's pocket. And what are you doin'? You're gonna reward George and destroy Charlie. You're building a rat ship here.

SLADE: A vessel for sea goin' snitches.

SLADE: Because I say you are killing the very spirit this institution proclaims it instills!

TRASK: Are you finished, Mr. Slade?

SLADE: No, I'm just gettin' warmed up.

SLADE: I'd show you but I'm too old; I'm too tired; I'm too fuckin' blind. If I were the man I was five years ago I'd take a FLAME-THROWER to this place! Outta order. Who the hell you think you're talkin' to? I've been around, you know? There was a time I could see. And I have seen boys like these, younger than these, their arms torn out, their legs ripped off. But there isn't nothin' like the sight of an amputated spirit; there is no prosthetic for that.

SLADE: You are executin' his SOUL!!!

TRASK: Stand down, Mr. Slade!

SLADE: I'm not finished! I don't know if Charlie's silence here today is right or wrong.

I'm not a judge or jury. But I can tell you this: he won't sell anybody out to buy his future!! And that, my friends, is called integrity! That's called courage! Now that's the stuff leaders should be made of.
