Criminal Class
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Criminal class - what you make me out to be
Criminal class - the jails you build for me
On the streets getting picked up for a crime
For being different I am guilty from the start
Fighting back seem a senseless thing to do
Working men now you're fucking behind bars
Criminal class - what you make me out to be
Criminal class - the jails you build for me
On the streets we are getting organized
Fight the system and their fucking corruption
Fight the law and there's no fucking turning back
The boys are back and they're back to take a stand
Criminal class - what you make me out to be
Criminal class - the jails you build for me
On the streets law and order ther is none
Th boys in blue can arrest anyone
Control the streets like a mafia rules the town
Protect and serve only when they do the crime
Criminal class - what you make me out to be
Criminal class - the jails you build for me
Judges make sure you don't really have a chance
Making bails only the wealthy can afford
Creating cells all over across the fucking land
Where the rich won't go in and the poor won't come out
Criminal class - what you make me out to be
Criminal class - the jails you build for me
Criminal class.
Criminal class - what you make me out to be
Criminal class - the jails you build for me.
