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 G7
They just say, "Come on son, in you go."
C G
I was picked up on suspicion of something I haven't done
G F#/G E/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 E7
A
I ended up in this jail
D A
Built in 18-82
When one man to one prison cell
E
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
E 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
E
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
E A A7
By treating them this way
D A
Is the prize of law and order the stench of Wormwood Scrubs
A G#/A F#/A E/A E
With judges quick to sentence sending more down from above
D A D
It's a cruel unusual punishment that society demands
A E A
Innocent till proven guilty, rotting on remand D A E A ...
