Let's talk about a criminal procedure
Am
throw out the idea of illegal seizure
G Am
put a rope around somebody's neck
let's hold some bastard up for example
take his blood and a urine sample
feed him garbage and make him pick up the check
chorus
well, here it comes here it comes, here it,
here, here, here it comes again (twice)
While you were sleeping the neighbors crept in
saw you were naked and called it a sin
The next thing you know... it's the next thing you know
men they poked their heads in your kitchen door
smelt something burning and they were sure
it must be the flag you were burning that's what they swore
chorus repeat
They tell you the preacher was hypocritical
what they don't tell you is that he's typical
what he stands for is totally mythical
and as they lead him away he'll pray for you brother
with a bible in one hand and playboy in the other
imagine what he does to his mother
chorus repeat
They tell you they wanna give the right to life
To millions of jerks who will live by the knife
Who'll beat up their children and beat up their wives
Now don't write poetry it's an offense
unless it falls to the right of the fence
you'll wind up a victim of zero tolerance
let's hold some bastard up for example
take his blood and a urine sample
remind him that man belongs down a man hole (three times) and then
ah yeah, get on down.
Graham Parker is an English singer-songwriter born in London in 1950. After a decade of performing with local bands, in 1975 Stiff Records founder Dave Robinson put him together with guitarists Brinsley Schwarz and Martin Belmont, keyboardist Bob Andrews, bassist Andrew Bodnar and drummer Steve Goulding. The result was Graham Parker and the Rumour, a band that achieved considerable success throughout the 1970s and 1980s. Parker is known for his incisive songwriting and energetic performances, influenced by artists such as Elvis Costello and The Kinks. His most important albums include "Stick to Me", "The Mona Lisa's Sister" and "Squeezing Out Sparks".

Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
