Law and disorder, the lines drawn and quartered
The bombs are exploding, the shrapnel and mortar
You lived by the laws and now this is the thanks you get

Power deceiving, the lives bludgeoned, bleeding
The gates have been shut and the minds are retreating
Tomorrow you'll wake up wondering where the freedom went

Law and disorder, fight fire with fire today
Law and disorder, the money decides who gets saved

Everything quiet til guns break the silence
A state of emergency, now full scale riot
And you're left wondering when the help is going to come

But you might as well be in a field dodging landmines
'Cause priority's drawn cleanly across the class lines
And that's why you're left to die in the blazing sun

Law and disorder, the poor left to rot in their graves
Law and disorder, the money decides who gets saved
