Down By Law Fly The Flag
pulverized
cast aside
but i survived
now fly the flag
criticized
opened wide
left to die
now fly the flag
brutalized
cut down to size
but i'll survive
now fly the flag
deified
mystified
crucified
now fly the flag
justified
penalized
but i survived
now fly the flag
learned to fight
two black eyes
but i'll survive
now fly the flag
all the things i thought i'd never be
now it looks like they're all happening to me
battlewise
streetwise
lies and lies
now fly the flag
lonely eyes
on my own tonight
but i'll survive
now fly the flag
hypnotize
petrified
but i'll survive
now fly the flag
glorified
victimized
but i'll survive
now fly the flag
all these things i thought i'd never be
and it looks like they're all happening to me
this one's for every lonely heart
when they've got you beat before you start
when it seems you're all alone
you've got nowhere to go
beaten down again
don't let the bastards get you down
get up tonight
stand up tonight
just don't let them keep you down
and fly
just fly
now fly the flag
