Anthrax - I am the law

Anthrax - I am the law

1986 album "among the living"

lyrics:

Fifteen years in the academy
He was like no cadet theyd ever seen
A man so hard, his veins bleed ice
And when he speaks he never says it twice
They call him judge, his last name is dredd
So break the law, and you wind up dead
Truth and justice are what hes fighting for
Judge dredd the man, he is the law
Drokk it!

With gun and bike he rules the streets
And every perp he meets will taste defeat
Not even death can overcome his might
Cause dredd and anderson, they won the fight
When the sovs started the apocalypse war
Mega-city was bombed to the floor
Dredd resisted, and the judges fought back
Crushed the sovs with their counter-attack
Drokk it!

Respect the badge - he earned it with his blood
Fear the gun - your sentence may be death because...
Chorus

I am the law!
And you wont fuck around no more - I am the law
I judge the rich, I judge the poor - I am the law
Commit a crime Ill lock the door - I am the law
Because in mega-city... I am the law

In the cursed earth where mutants dwell
There is no law, just a living hell
Anarchy and chaos as the blood runs red
But this would change if it was up to dredd
The book of law is the Bible to him
And any crime committed is a sin
He keeps the peace with his law-giver
Judge, jury, and executioner
Drokk it!

Crime - the ultimate sin
Your iso-cube is waiting when he brings you in
Law - its what he stands for
Crimes his only enemy and hes going to war

Crime - the ultimate sin
Your iso-cube is waiting when he brings you in
Law - its what he stands for
Crimes his only enemy and hes going to war

[DarthKrattus]

The intro reminds me of "Tormentor" by Slayer

[LynxOGrady]

@N30NT1G3R1 well also consider the time difference

[Wafflepudding]

@Cpt50Caliber In the Judge Dredd story, swearing was declared illegal as inciting to violence and social disorder (like coffee and sugar. Yes I'm not shitting you, sugar), so they started replacing the banned words with phonetic approximations: drokk instead of fuck, grud instead of god, and so on.
