G#
I stood before the judge that day
C# G#
As he refused my bail
And I knew that I would spend my time
D#
Awaiting trial in jail
G#
I said there is no justice
C# G#
As they led me out of the door
C# G#
And the judge said, "This isn't a court of justice son
D# G#
This is a court of law".
G#
They first sent me to Windsor
C# G#
And then to Stoke on Trent
In a holding cell in Liverpool
D#
Three days and nights I spent
G#
My solicitor can't find me
C# G#
And my family don't know
C# G#
I keep telling them that I'm innocent
D# G# G#7
They just say, "Come on son, in you go."
C# G#
I was picked up on suspicion of something I haven't done
G# G/G# F/G# D#/G# D#
Here I sit in 'F' wing waiting for my trial to come
C# G# C#
It's a cruel unusual punishment that society demands
G# D# G#
Innocent till proven guilty, rotting on remand
C# G# D# G# F7
A#
I ended up in this jail
D# A#
Built in 18-82
When one man to one prison cell
F
Was a Victorian value
A#
Now three of us are squeezed in here
D# A#
And you can't escape the smell
D# A#
Of that bucket in the corner
F A#
And we eat in here as well
They let me out of this cage
D# A#
To slop that bucket out
To get my food and bring it back
F
And if I'm lucky, get a shower
A#
Apart from one hours exercise
D# A#
I'm locked in here all day
D# A#
You don't turn criminals into citizens
F A# A#7
By treating them this way
D# A#
Is the prize of law and order the stench of Wormwood Scrubs
A# A/A# G/A# F/A# F
With judges quick to sentence sending more down from above
D# A# D#
It's a cruel unusual punishment that society demands
A# F A#
Innocent till proven guilty, rotting on remand D# A# F A# ...
