Laws Must Change

The time must surely come

For the laws to fit the times

The time must surely come

For the laws to fit the times



But while the law is standing

You gotta open up your minds



It seems to be the fashion

To say you're right and they are wrong

It seems to be the fashion

To say you're right and they are wrong



But you gotta see both sides

You'll find yourself in jail 'fore long



You're screamin' at policemen

But they're only doin' a gig

You're screamin' at policemen

But they are only doin' a gig



Gotta try and take the time

To figure out how the issue got that big



Lenny Bruce was trying to tell you

Many things before he died

Lenny Bruce was trying to tell you

Many things before he died



Don't throw rocks at policemen

But get the knots of law untied



Every time you're holdin'

You are guilty of a crime

Every time you're holdin'

You are guilty of a crime



The laws must change one day

But it's goin' to take some time
