Ray Davies - Angola (Wrong Side of the Law) (Bonus Track) lyrics

Lying in bed, waiting for the drip to feed Over my head, a movie on the TV Cops, k**ers ruling with the gun Then a nurse comes in, time for the medication Blame it on shock, blame it on the morphine But my finger prints put me on the crime scene Cruel twist of fate, it's like I'm in a really bad dream I'm a victim of mistaken identity And the ordinary people All the pa**ers-by Shake their heads and sigh "But for the grace of God go I" They are just on the wrong side of the law Livin' on the wrong side of the law Victims each and every one Now the bad guy's out there on the run Heading for the setting sun There's a jailhouse in Louisiana state And in times like this I really do appreciate The desperate cries of all of the inmates 'Cause once you're inside, they're gonna make ya' sit and wait As time goes by, hear the criminals sing a sad, sad song We were just on the wrong side of the law Livin' on the wrong side of the law Victims each and every one Now the outlaw's living on the run Heading for the setting sun And the ordinary people All the pa**ers-by Are helpless on the wrong side of the law Staring at the wrong side of the law Every time we see the system fail And the bad guys end up getting bail While the good guys go to jail Yeah, I might as well rot in Angola For all the good the DA's done for me I was the one who ended up taking the bullet I'm lying here, but he's still runnin' free On the wrong side of the law
