Versurile Oi Polloi - 23 Houres
Versuri 23 Houres
Arrested - beaten black and blue
Confession - beaten out of you
You didn't do it - but you still get the cell
In prison - institiutionalised hell
23 houres - banged up day and night
Beatings - given out left and right
By the screws who want to put you down
Degradation - they rub your face in the ground
How many are imprisoned for a crime they didn't
do
Don't think for one minute that it couldn't be me
or you
So if you feel you're tempted to just ignore this
song
Put yourself in their place and write to right
the wrong
How many thousands of people all around the globe
are imprisoned for crimes they never commited? How
many more for their political beliefs? Or simply
because they have fallen foul of vicious,
opressive legal systems that serve only to protect
the wealthy and powerful elite? What is perhaps
the cruellest blow of all to these people is when
those of us on the outside simply sit back and
allow them to rot in the cells. Organisations like
Amnesty International and The Anarchist Black
Cross have shown that, by using our collective
strength, we can get out many of these people.
There is no excuse for inaction. At the time of
recording, Martin Foran is on hungerstrike and
John Perotti is on fast to death - How many more
lives must be screwed up and wasted before we face
up to our responsibilities and work to support our
sisters and brothers in captivity?
