Ramones — Punishment Fits The Crime (The Chrysalis Years Anthology 2002)

Текст песни: Punishment Fits The Crime (The Chrysalis Years Anthology 2002)

[Verse 1]
I hear the bells of freedom chiming
But inside my heart I feel I'm dying
Wise guys never compromise
Then they lose their rights and they act surprised
Jail really cuts you down to size

[Chorus]
Let the punishment fit the crime
The footprints on the sand of time
The philosophy of the warish crime
Make a man humble in his prime

[Verse 2]
You can go up, down, or sideways
Be on death row, counting the days
They say the answers are blowing in the wind
And to take yourself out would really be a sin
You just have to cope and start over again

[Chorus]
Let the punishment fit the crime
The footprints on the sand of time
The philosophy of the warish crime
Make a man humble in his prime
[Verse 3]
Little child cries in his sleep
And life makes promises it can't keep
And then feel you had, had enough
You realize somehow, someway
Your destiny was planned from the very first day

[Chorus]
Let the punishment fit the crime
The footprints on the sand of time
The philosophy of the warish crime
Make a man humble in his prime
Let the punishment fit the crime
The footprints on the sand of time
The philosophy of the warish crime
Make a man humble in his prime

[Outro]
Let the punishment fit the crime
Let the punishment fit the crime
Let the punishment fit the crime
Let the punishment fit the crime
