Thou shalt not the law defy
Thou shalt love the law's command
Know the law comes from on high
Know the law is in God's hand!

Show respect for regulations
All are equal for the law
If God's given you a prisoner
He craves silence evermore

Policemen go in gangs to bludgeon
An eye for an eye the law's demanding
If God's given you a truncheon
He will give you understanding!

If God's given you a truncheon
He will give you understanding
