I Fought the Law - Masked Intruder

It’s a Saturday night

The police are trying to ruin my good time

They got no right

But it doesn’t seem to matter cause it happens every time

I try to get close to you

Instead I see those flashes of red and blue

There’s nothing left to say but «oh no oh-oh-oh no»

What am I supposed to do?

Cause I fought the law with all my might

I fought the law but I just could not win that fight

Just like our founding fathers, I fought to be free

I fought the law, but the law beat the shit out of me

Another Saturday night

Fucking pigs are trying to ruin my good time

They got no right

But it doesn’t seem to matter cause it happens every time

I try to get close to you

Instead I see those flashes of red and blue

There’s nothing left to say but «oh no oh-oh-oh no»

What am I supposed to do?

Cause I fought the law… yes I did!

Cause I fought the law with all my might

I fought the law but I just could not win that fight

Oh no, I hope that somebody is taping this and they play it on TV (I fought the

law)

A cable news expose on police brutality (I fought the law)

Just like president Benjamin Franklin, I fought to be free

I fought the law, but the law beat the shit out of me
