If they dont like your face
Theyll put you in your place
Youve got no recourse
Youre guilty as charged
You cant tell them right from wrong
If they think they know which side youre on
Youre at their mercy
And their mercy is no place to be!
It aint no place for me!

Theyve got the badges
Theyve got the guns
You aint got a bloody thing
When someones word is law!
Youve gotta hide your rage
Or theyll put you in the cage
Just smile at the injustice
And be grateful if they let you walk away

If they dont like your face
Theyll put you in your place
Youve got no recourse
Youre guilty has charged
You cant tell them right from wrong
If they think they know which side youre on
Youre at their mercy
And their mercy is no place to be!
Then if they say youre guilty
And then youre guilty!
