Law and order (Throughout the land) Lyrics by Conflict

Statements of Intent 1982-87

0

[Intro]
The system maintains
Law and order throughout the land
[Verse 1]
No more law and order
That word just says it all
Its just one human being denying another of selfrule
The police ain't authority
For all they do is serve
The state to do their dirty work
To make the people learn
They interrogate, discriminate, smash demos and assault
They sort out all the queers
Keep them away locked in a vault
They're in here for protection
But protection for who?
They all wear the same badge that says
"Fuck you all"
Oh yeah! They're here to maintain rights
They're here to keep the peace
They've even got the right to lock up and not release
Any form of rebel, they'll even work against their own
Because they bribe them very well and they may also get a home
Protect their privilege no matter what the cost
Now you're the piggy in the middle
And they couldn't give a toss
They sit back and laugh
Yes they laugh at you too
Because they also wear a badge that says
"We use you"
[Outro]
It's just the same old story of a state going wrong
Where possessions matter and people don't!
Be surprised that we've turned against you
Because if you side with them, it's
"Fuck you too!"
