Oui 3 - Accessory After The Fact lyrics

Tell me please in the name of GOD How a fellow like you gets on the Squad You know who you are cos you wear a blue suit And you're bringing the force into disrepute Nice uniform but the cap don't fit Time for you to resign or quit Acting like that to get a conviction Walking, talking work of fiction Truth was spoken but nobody heard it So you obtained your guilty verdict And the jury buys the picture you paint Justice is seen to be done, but it ain't Another innocent life is shattered But you looked the part and nothing else mattered Put a feather in your cap, and pat on the back Yo! Accessory after the fact A prisoner lays awake in a cell And God forsaken eyes begin to well With tears that fall on stone And wash away the years in the twilight zone Restore their dignity, restore their pride Restore, their liberty, request denied You can never buy back the time inside The wrong can never be rectified I'd like to know what your superiors think about that? Accessory after the fact Seven years have gone since the k**ing But still no sign of the real villain The villain, the villain, the villain of the piece "The case is closed" says the chief of police But what about the family of the deceased? You could do right by them atleast But you let the perpetrator go free After the fact your an accessory! I'd like to know what your superiors think about that? Accessory after the fact
