They call it shot by mistake

Or a “self defence case”

So it’s easy to be excused

But they’ve knocked you down

In the jail of your town

You’re tortured and abused

They represent the law

With an iron claw

They are stupid and insane

We are computerized,

We are terrified

By their chronic and violent raids

Never trust a cop when he’s in your sight

You’re always wrong when you’re right

When they’re dressed in uniform,

They all feel so mighty strong

They are all trained to smash our brains

Blood on the chains

Blood on the chains

Blood on the chains

Blood on the chains

When they kick in your face

They erase every trace

Before they send you back on the streets

There’s no proof, no claim,

Just a number, no name

It’s perfect authority

Never trust a cop when he’s in your sight

You’re always wrong when you’re right

When they’re dressed in uniform,

They all feel so mighty strong

They are all trained to smash our brains

Blood on the chains

Blood on the chains

Blood on the chains

Blood on the chains

It’s always the same

You’re the ball in their game

When they lose self control

With violation they protect the nation

They are masters in their role

Never trust a cop when he’s in your sight

You’re always wrong when you’re right

When they’re dressed in uniform,

They all feel so mighty strong

They are all trained to smash our brains

Blood on the chains

Blood on the chains

Blood on the chains

Blood on the chains
