Rough Justice (<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Well the young one\u2019s today are all vandals<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The buggers are muggers an all<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When their not out ram raiding their out there parading <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The stuff they nicked in the last haul<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Well hard discipline never did me any harm<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And conscription would do them all good<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And if I had me way we would go back to the days<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When a criminal knew where he stood<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Chorus<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019d flock them and flay them and hang them<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019d bring back the birch and the cat<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019d give them what for the strong arm of the law<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The thumb screws the stocks and all that<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Course we could give them jobs and a future<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And their chance of a place in the sun<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We could give them fair shares in a country that cares<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But it would\u2019t be half as much fun<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Well take the probationary service <\/p>\n\n\n\n
They\u2019d be sacked to a man right away<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And all of them shirkers they call social workers<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019d find them real jobs for a change <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then there be no more pleading for mercy<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While stood in the dock looking nervous<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When some time served old lag caught red handed with swag<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Thanking god for community service No I\u2019d\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026..<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I could save the poor tax payers money<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Do away the jury I say<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For a judge worth his salt knows the criminal sort<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He can spot them a mile away<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s their clothes and their haircuts and accents <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It lets them down time after time<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With no jury to please a good judge could at ease<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Select punishment fit for the crime Like\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026..<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Well prisons today are like holiday camps<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They get snooker ping pong and TV<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When their not breaking rocks up they should be chained and lock up<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Not studying for a lawyers degrees<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There\u2019s no porridge and no bread and water<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They get lashings of whisky and per nod<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s like something of Sky or straight of HI Di HI<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When it should be like Dante\u2019s inferno No I\u2019d\u2026\u2026\u2026..<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They say villains need our understanding <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Compassion and help not reproof<\/p>\n\n\n\n
but show to much meekness they\u2019ll take it as weakness<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And start chucking tiles of the roof <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I admit we might string up a few by mistake<\/p>\n\n\n\n
By break the old innocent jurat<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It just means they were hung before they did wrong<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Well prevention is better than cure\t\t\t So lets\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026..<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
