Break the Law!

Chris de Burgh

You have sentenced me to death, I accept your decision,
I must hang by the neck till I am dead,
For nothing could be worse than a lifetime in your prison,
So take my life instead
You accuse me of treason,
I have meant what I have said,
And now I have nothing to fear,

And yes I have been in the forest of the King,
Stealing the royal deer
While this man, your King, stays up there in London,
Laughing and gorging food and wine,
Obsessing with taxation, he's bringing down this nation,
And flaunting his concubine!
And what of his people, does he know that you are starving,
Can he hear you when you call? No!
He cares no more for you than for dogs down in the gutter,
He will regret this day!

So I stand here before you and face my execution,
At the hands of this tyrant today,
You cannot live in hunger, the law will not support you,
So listen to me when I say

Break the law, break the law,
Go into the forest take what should be yours,
Break the law, break the law,
The King wants all your money, so don't give him anymore,

Break the law, break the law,
It only helps the rich and strong,
You should be where you belong,
Shout it loud when I have gone!
Break the law, break the law,
Break the law, break the law,
Break the law, break the law,
Break the law, break the law!!
