Ganglord
The police are kicking their way into my house
And haunting me, taunting me
Wanting me to break their laws
Ganglord
The police are kicking their way into my house
And haunting me, taunting me
Wanting me to break their laws
And I'm turning to you to save me
And I'm turning to you to save me
Ganglord
The police are grinding me into the ground
The headless pack are back
Small-boy jokes and loaded guns

The headless pack are back
Small-boy jokes and loaded guns
