Not when they're up to no good, not when they're playing bully

Doing the bidding of rich elite, to build the corporate state

You'll find yourself in traction
       A#m                                         F#
From a choke and a fist and a club and boot to the face

Because you know it just takes one false statement
       G#
From a cop who's lying

               A#m                       F#
When they roll out looking for fights, a gang of armed thugs under flashing lights
C#                              A#m                F#
Daring you to stand up for your rights so they can take your rights away!
