Secure is not an issue it is a belief in self

Sod all can be done for the feelin’ of self-worth

That people must feel in order to make

Other people wear tags like dogs on a leash

From the law

It is a Human Right to wander

And an inhuman necessity to cover up

The thing on the leg called tags.

Oh so you know what I’m talking about, ey?

The look so far north as mine eyes can see

And tell me what you did

That gave you the right to wear that

Tattoo in such resplunder and

Result

A maimed man in the boot of the car and

Away we go for the cor-blimey of it.

You never claim what you ain’t when you go to prison

Here in the UK or it makes it worst than evah.
