Paul Janz - Get Arrested lyrics
Your rating:
We've been watchin' the signs We've been readin' the news And now we're starin' amazed at Your shame-faced bluse We shoulda guessed it I guess we shoulda guessed it You've been walkin' the line Like a bad man's dream Never pay who you lay Never say what you mean You should get arrested Give us something to trust in We've been wastin' our time on you All we want is a fighting chance and you give us Handstand weekends, peaches in the darkness Cool hand dealin', leeches lookin' harmless You should get arrested (chorus) Has anybody seen the breakdown comin' We're being guided by a ship of fools On every street in every town There's a hundred voices cryin' For anybody standin' up for somethin' You better hold on to your alibis Cause life is a bitch when a fool gets rich He can lie to survive and the young and alive Get arrested You got legacies, lawyers, abandoned grins You're a criminal case with original sin That we never shoulda messed with We got mamas and kids standin' in line For a couple of bucks, a couple of dimes You should get arrested Is this a system of justice We've been wastin' our wealth on you All we wanted was a fighting chance And you give us Jive in the boardroom, squeals in the bedroom Red tape, files, bureaucracy in full bloom You should get arrested Chorus
