Lyrics for Law
Law
It's illegal to kill off your landlord
Or to trespass upon his estate
But to charge a high rent for a slum is okay
To condemn two adults and three children to stay
In a hollow that's rotten with damp and decay
Is a thing that is perfectly legal
If your job turns you into a zombie
It's legal to feel some despair
But best keep your mouth shut
That is if you're smart
For Christ's sake don't upset the old applecart
Remember your boss has you interests at heart
it grieves him to see you unhappy
It's illegal to chop up your missus
Or put poison in your ol' mans tea
But poison the rivers, the seas, and the skies
And poison the mind of the nation with lies
If it's done in the interest of free enterprise
It's proper and perfectly legal
It's illegal
It's illegal
The things that make you happy
It's legal to sing on the telly
But they make bloody sure that you don't
If you sing about fascists and racists and creeps
An thieves in high places who live off the weak
And those who are selling us right up the creek
The demons elected to office
