Free Satpal Ram Songtext

von Asian Dub Foundation

Back way to all the trouble makers, better fix up your brains because your the biggest fakers
Come in the place better know who you are, Self Defence is no Offence
The scales of justice weighed down on one side
Freemasons on the case, you know you're gonna get a rough ride
Hold tight even if you know you're rights
It's just a piece of paper unless you're prepared to fight
For twelve years, one hell of a long time to rot in a cell when you've committed no crime
Another innocent man forced to carry the can
Free Satpal Ram, Free Satpal Ram
Another innocent man, just another innocent man
Who's word against who
The degenerate crew out on the town thought they had something to prove
Self defence is no offence
Had to protect himself from the marauding fools
Cutting remarks on account of his race, a plate to the chest and a glass in his face
An Asian fights back, can't afford to be meek
With your back up against the wall you can't be turning the other cheek
And we say back away to all the troublemakers
Fix up your brains 'cause you're the biggest fakers
You come in a di place, do you know who you are?
Free Satpal Ram, Free Satpal Ram
Another innocent man
Just another innocent man
Birmingham 6, Bridgewater 4, Crown Prosecution totting up the score
King's Cross 2, Guildford 4, Winston Silcott, how many more?
Satpal attacked in a restaurant by racists
Now the brother's locked up on a lifetime basis
Convicted of murder but what was never mentioned, self defence was his only intention
ADF once again taking to the stand, witness the jailing of an innocent man
Kicking up a fuss 'cause it could happen to us
Time to join in the fight back, because enough is enough!
And we say back away to all the troublemakers
Fix up your brains 'cause you're the biggest fakers
You come in a di place, do you know who you are?
Free Satpal Ram!
