Civilized Lyrics - Singles - Henry Rollins

I'm sitting in my room in your prison doing time 

Bars on my windows because your not so good at crime 

Standing on the corner with nothing in your head 

Shirt on your back and a gun in your pants 

Thinking you're the man but you're only a stand in 

Standing in line to be the next bad guy 

I see what you do when you use what you got 

But what do you do when you do what you want 

You're so civilized 

You get brutalized 

I see you get yourself cut down 

Getting your mind off some guy's record 

Making his money off fools like you 

Singin' about killing like it ain't no thing 

But you'll do the time when you live it for real 

Paying his way from your death row cell 

You're the last one to see that you got sold out 

I hear you say you hate pigs so much 

Then why the hell do you act like one 

A gun in your hand makes a fool out of you 

A gun in your hand makes a target out of me 

Freedom? 

You want your freedom 

You can't handle freedom 

You're dying for it
