It’s Ok to Break the Law if You Have Good Intentions Lyrics by Matt Farley

Keep Being Awesome!

2016

[Verse 1]
Life is long and I might get caught
But it's also short, and probably not
My only regrets are the fights I never fought
All the stuff that I’ve been taught I forgot
All except for one less, that's keep them guessing
If they think you won't press, it’s time for pressing
The only field that I want success in is the inability to give a false confession
[Chorus]
'Cause I keep on yelling loud
And I keep on feeling proud
As the guard is removing me from the crowd
Telling me that I was doing what wasn't aloud
[Verse 2]
If the friendly officers don't understand
I still get a chance on the witnеss stand
I speak from my heart and they'll givе me a hand
Saying "we decree, you've got to free this man"
And if that is the worst-case scenario
Then it's pretty obvious I have to give it a go
Self-destruction such a powerful foe
Don't go with the flow, don’t put on a show
[Refrain]
I never got a job with a nice big pension
I’ve never been a warden at an honorable mention
'Cause I’ve always been a man who didn't like convention
It's ok to break the law if you've got good intentions
[Chorus]
’Cause I keep on yelling loud
And I keep on feeling proud
As the guard is removing me from the crowd
Telling me that I was doing what wasn't aloud
'Cause I keep on yelling loud (I never got a job with a nice big pension)
And I keep on feeling proud (I've never been a warden at an honorable mention)
As the guard is removing me from the crowd ('Cause I've always been a man who didn't like convention)
Telling me that I was doing what wasn't aloud (It's ok to break the law cause I've got good intentions)
'Cause I keep on yelling loud (I never got a job with a nice big pension)
And I keep on feeling proud (I've never been a warden at an honorable mention)
As the guard is removing me from the crowd ('Cause I've always been a man who didn't like convention)
Telling me that I was doing what wasn't aloud (It's ok to break the law cause I've got good intentions)
