Lyrics:
30 years of getting up from bed30 years he's punctual at workDirty years in a dark factory30 years in trouble day by dayHe's a victim of his time - He's got to carry it outHe never did something wrongIn the morning hear the chairman sayToo old to work - Go your own wayThe final act - Release out of lifeToo old to live - too young to dieThe situation of this man - The situation ain't newThe little are to blame - The big are not toDown - Down, down by law - Down by law...Chanceless search - responsibilityAntisocial - outlaws of societyHis mind is changing - from white to blackOne decision - There ain't no way backHe's a victim of his time - He's got to carry it outHe never did something wrongDown - Down, down by law - Down by law...No doubt about it - looking for revengeBlow up the walls - The walls of forgotten namesSOLOThe end of the story - They caught him like a thiefNo one who supports him - No one would believeHe is down - Down by law...For years sent to prison - To live in daily fearBut the men of justice - Released him after yearsHe is down - Down by law...His sincered pride was broken - Not to be repairedThe rumour of justice - Destroy it everywhereHe is down - Down by law...His wife and children down on their kneesAt school they say: Children of the beastNo way out - Out of miseryOnly dreaming - The dream of harmonyThe situation of this man - The situation ain't newThe little are to blame - The big are not toDown - Down, down by law - Down by law...
