Black Maria
Resist

Remember Jimmy eight years old
And his tiny body sold
To customers willing to pay

Of course his test is positive
Another day he will not live
And what do you have to say?

Do you remember poor Irene
A little whore and just fifteen
On the streets due to her debt

And every night her bloody work
I know tonight she will get hurt
Her tormentor starts the chase

So could you please now resist
Its all over raise your fist
Breaking chains do it now
Or well have another row

So could you please now resist
Its all over raise your fist
Breaking chains do it now
Or well have another row

A different time a different place
Another victim of disgrace
Are we all here to be judged

Look at yourself look all around
Misery is what weve found
Complacency is the cause

If we dont know we can't object
And every soul deserves respect
Why are we blind to see the truth

They dont deserve the life they live
We shouldn't take instead we'll give
There is no reason not to act.

So could you please now resist
Its all over raise your fist
Breaking chains do it now
Or well have another row

So could you please now resist
Its all over raise your fist
Breaking chains do it now
Or well have another row

Could you please now resist
Its all over raise your fist
Breaking chains do it now
Or well have another row

Could you please now resist
Its all over raise your fist
Breaking chains do it now
Or well have another row
