| We went into town on the Tuesday night
|
| Searching all the places that you hang about
|
| We’re looking for you
|
| In the back street cellar dive drinking clubs
|
| In the discotheques and the gaming pubs
|
| We’re looking for you
|
| You will pay the price for my own sweet brother
|
| And what he has become
|
| And a hundred other boys and girls
|
| And all that you have done
|
| We picked up the trail at the Seven Crowns
|
| One of your cronies — he was doing your rounds
|
| We followed him
|
| Just a silhouette figure up Market Pass
|
| Where the headlamps shine on the broken glass
|
| We followed him
|
| Over the bridge by the old canal
|
| Where the shadows dance on the lighted wall
|
| He stopped to light up a cigarette
|
| And we dived into a doorway
|
| No police, no summons, no courts of law (no, no, no, no)
|
| No proper procedure, no rules of war (no, no, no, no)
|
| No mitigating circumstance (no, no, no, no)
|
| No lawyer’s fee, no second chance (no, no, no, no)
|
| There are lasses getting trouble on their own home beat
|
| There are old folk battered in the open street
|
| In this city of ours
|
| There are eyes that see but say nothing at all
|
| There are ears that hear but they don’t recall
|
| In this city of ours
|
| So we followed your man back to your front door
|
| And we’re waiting for you outside
|
| 'Cause not everybody here is scared of you
|
| Not everybody passes on the other side
|
| No police, no summons, no courts of law (no, no, no, no)
|
| No proper procedure, no rules of war (no, no, no, no)
|
| No mitigating circumstance (no, no, no, no)
|
| No lawyer’s fee, no second chance (no, no, no, no)
|
| And we could spent our whole lives waiting
|
| For some thunderbolt to come
|
| And we could spent our whole lives waiting
|
| For some justice to be done
|
| Unless we make our own
|
| Ohh, no police, no summons, no courts of law (no, no, no, no)
|
| No proper procedure, no rules of war (no, no, no, no)
|
| No mitigating circumstance (no, no, no, no)
|
| No lawyer’s fee, no second chance (no, no, no, no) |
