The Law Is Rotten To The Core

Woe to lawyers everywhere,
At justice you're a failure,  
From Texas to Australia,  
Your procedures are unfair,
But you don't seem to care.  

You jail the innocent,
Based on fake convictions,
You fail the innocent,
Through lies and legal fictions,
In all the jurisdictions.

People lose their liberty,
Due to juries full of fools,
Condemned to live in misery,  
By your stupid legal rules,
Learned in good-for-nothing schools.      

You know that juries get it wrong,
You know they've badly erred,
You've let them get it wrong so long,
Your system is absurd,  
Your courts are made of turd.

Scorners of the truth,  
Not doing what you ought,  
In jailing without proof,  
What suffering have you wrought?
Do you give that any thought?

Do you feel a moral pang,
The slightest twinge of conscience,
When setting out to wrongly hang,
An innocent with nonsense,  
Not proper evidence?  

Are you perversely thrilled,
When you inflict such pain?
When innocents are killed,
What pleasures do you gain?
What thoughts go through your brain?  

Upholders of a system,
Defenders of a law,  
Belonging in the cistern,
And rotten to its core,  
Comeuppance is in store.  

You will not get away,
With your wrongful prosecutions,
You will be made to pay.  
And suffer retributions,
Perhaps electrocutions.

In the name of eye for eye,
You will be put away,
In the slammer till you die,
Or put to death some day,
That is the price you'll pay.
