Don't Look Back

Words & Music: Chris Malme
Inspired by the comic character "Judge Dredd"

You'd better watch out on the streets tonight
There's gonna be some trouble and a hell of a fight
For I hear that the Judge has just hit town
I wonder who the sucker is he's gonna put down

    So don't look back, just run and hide
    If you're a law breaker you should have stayed in bed
    He's got justice on his side
    He's the ol' Law Maker, the man they all call Dredd.

Now Megacity One ain't the place to hide
Ol' Dredd he will take you dead or alive
He moves in the wake of a bloody war
'Cos Dredd is the Judge and the Judge is Law

    So don't look back, just run and hide
    If you're a law breaker he'll fill you full of lead
    He's got justice on his side
    He's the ol' Law Maker, the man they all call Dredd.

So do as your told or you're bound for hell
'Cos Dredd is the Judge, and the Jury as well
"What of my rights?", I hear you cry
You've only one right and that's the right to die.

    So don't look back, just run and hide
    If you're a law breaker you know you're good as dead
    He's got justice on his side
    He's the ol' Law Maker, the man they all call Dredd.
