Downtown to the courthouse 

For some pass-the-buck justice 

It's a knock-down, drag 'em out, beat 'em up, mace the crowd 

Strip search, busted 

Can't control the fire 

Coming through barbed wire 

It's a junkyard, live hard, bear the scars of broke and charred 

Sellers and buyers 

So when all is said and done 

Watch out, 'cause here they come 

Shadows of the night 



It's the last of the old ways 

It's the wave of the new age 

Computerized, digitized, money markets, mechanized 

Internet highway 

Infected by the needy 

Neglected by the greedy 

Chaos, blood loss, nickel bagging debutants 

Looking for a freebie 



We got radio silence 

Another act of violence 

Backstage, spray paint, security in rollerskates 

Beating on a new dance 

Going down on a choker 

Stun gun smoker 

Open range, who's game, shoot until the scream of pain 

Never getting older
