violent by design - petrol girls lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
you gotta lotta trust in thugs in uniform
so who is it that you think that they protect you from?
who do you see when you see ‘them’?
model*village citizen

[verse 2]
just a slap on our wrists and we know it
we breathe easy, sleep easy
our shock shows our distance
shows we’ve not been listening
[verse 3]
there to make us safe
keep us in our place
criminals must pay
so do what they say

[verse 4]
whose law? whose order?
whose law? whose order?
why address need when they can protect greed?
the p.i.c.’s expanding

what kind of peace do they keep?
i see no justice

[chorus]
you think they make us safe?
are they a friendly face?
keep us all in our place
hey, it’s a pretty nice place you got there
oh, are they the good guys?
are they the nation’s pride?
always on the right side
the thin blue line is violent by design

[verse 5]
invented to protect property
value statues more than our bodies
they humiliate and disbelieve
they protect their own
just a domestic
she had it coming

[verse 6]
just a wrong’un in a just system
can’t even deliver on its own outcomes
they get access to the vulnerable
there’s rapists and k!llers in uniform

but why didn’t she call up the police?

[chorus]
you take their advice?
do you stay home at night?
we’re more likely to die
in our homes at the hands of a man we know
oh, are they the good guys?
are they the nation’s pride?
always on the right side
the thin blue line is violent by design

[outro]
how many bad apples
till we look at the tree
pull at its roots
confront our history?
acab
they don’t protect me
