Get Arrested Lyrics - Singles - Janz Paul

We've been watchin' the signs 

We've been readin' the news 

And now we're starin' amazed at 

your shame-faced bluse 

We shoulda guessed it 

I guess we shoulda guessed it 

You've been walkin' the line 

Like a bad man's dream 

Never pay who you lay 

Never say what you mean 

You should get arrested 

Give us something to trust in 

We've been wastin' our time on you 

All we want is a fighting chance and you give us 

Handstand weekends, peaches in the darkness 

Cool hand dealin', leeches lookin' harmless 

You should get arrested 

(chorus) 

Has anybody seen the breakdown comin' 

We're being guided by a ship of fools 

On every street in every town 

There's a hundred voices cryin' 

For anybody standin' up for somethin' 

You better hold on to your alibis 

Cause life is a bitch when a fool gets rich 

He can lie to survive and the young and alive 

Get arrested 

You got legacies, lawyers, abandoned grins 

You're a criminal case with original sin 

That we never shoulda messed with 

We got mamas and kids standin' in line 

For a couple of bucks, a couple of dimes 

You should get arrested 

Is this a system of justice 

We've been wastin' our wealth on you 

All we wanted was a fighting chance 

and you give us 

Jive in the boardroom, squeals in the bedroom 

Red tape, files, bureaucracy in full bloom 

You should get arrested 

chorus
