Where Is The Justice?

Where is the justice
When the guilty all go free?
Why don't we lock them up
And throw away the key?

I see a young man's anger
Burning in your eyes.

What you see is my impatience
With your noble compromise
Show me what's right about the wrongs that we allow
Real people need to feel protected here and now
This whole damn system's broken way beyond repair
It's just law
Not law and order
Not much good and seldom fair.

Laws are made for everyone
We're treated all the same.

Till a lawyer's tricks can fix the blame
Let the corporations make the regulations
And hold no one uncountable when everything goes wrong
Let the rich and famous get away with murder
Every time a high-priced mouth piece starts to talk
His client gets a walk
Tell me, where is the justice?
If there's any justice.

(Where's the justice? Tell me where)

Where is the justice
For all the victims? (Tell me where!)
Where is the justice? (Tell me where!)
What good is law that can't punish those who break it?

Politicians make their speeches all day long
While judges pushing pencils mostly get it wrong (Mostly get it wrong!)

Instead of loopholes for the laws to fall between
Let some good old fashioned payback
grease the wheels of a machine (Grease the wheels of the machine)

Isn't everybody sick to death of all this stuff?
Can't we all stand up and say enough? (We've had enough)

(Justice, justice, justice, now's the time for)

Listen to the families hiding in their houses (justice, justice)
All of them afraid to walk the streets at night
With all the doors locked tight
We must give them their justice (Where is the justice?)
We owe them some justice (Where is the justice?)
Where is the justice?
