Just Something I Pondered
with the school doors locked,stead fast and
bolted.
the teachers all drunk and the pupils insulted
the guilty chased down beaten and berated
this is the society for which i've waited
the street dealers dealt with the street way
the car jackers jacked up and slayed
the right on moved right over a cliff
you have to be ruthless with the ignorant of bliss.
with the cop lights flashin in the cafe car park
it's up to the vigilantes to keep watch through dark
dont burn your bra's, go burn your madmen
entombe them in concrete and let the seas have them
clean up the streets with the dirt on your mind
break down the walls and let in some light
hallowed be revenge
burn your foe and not your freind
the sky's outside will one day end
and ask you what you've done.
shallow be the trend
to not sacrafice for other men
a little bit of time to spend
being forcefull like the wind
time was once on each mans side
a confidont in which to confide
the secrets that burn out your eyes
but now it only passes bye.
shallow be these man made skys
that let the sun come down and fry
children were they're born and lie
as soon as shed there tears dry .
