Justice of the Peace

[Verse 1]
Have you heard on the news?
Another let-off madman
Another screw on the loose
Is it the judge or the bad man?
What's the matter these days?
No one has the courage to put them away
Nobody has any faith
'Cause there's a breakdown of justice and order

[Chorus]
Waiting for justice, waiting for justice of the peace
Waiting for justice, waiting for justice of the peace

[Verse 2]
When I remember back the memories of yesterday
With all the friends and all the times
When people were carefree
And walking down the street
When everyone knew everyone
And all the houses doors were open
No had to care; those days are gone
Those days are gone
Those days are gone

[Chorus]
Waiting for justice, waiting for justice of the peace
Waiting for justice, waiting for justice of the peace

[Verse 3]
I long for the times when you could
Wander down the street unharmed
When people didn't have much money
But didn't seem to care
It must be the cynic in me
But I don't really like things now
The violence, the attitudes
Aggression that you see every day
A sick society looks the other way
Yeah
