about

Written after bud had to sit in for Jury service when he had a mortgage, before he lost his house (silly billy). Appalled by the farce of the tier system of justice afforded by those in the dock who had money for defence as opposed to those that didn't.... so this song happened.

lyrics

All me hard earned street cred
is going down the pan
they've got me by the bollocks
I'm carrying the can
I'm the fucking juror
I'm here to serve the Queen
you know this rich man justice
is sometimes fucking mean
I'm selected off the register that I just want to spoil
for there’s shit goes down its all around
it brings my blood to boil
Ch/
I wouldn't say I'm lucky I ain't standing in the dock
if the cards were slightly shuffled
I could've been a cop
or I could've been a prisoner
if they caught me with the gear
now I'm listening to evidence that I don't want to hear
for theres 12 of us its fucking shit
coz we don't understand
we’re drifting of and getting lost
crowns got the upper hand
Ch/
I’m the closest to the commoner
the judge would want to get
he wants to catch the unlucky man
and snap his fucking neck
he got caught with his pants down and spent his VAT
I really want to shake his hand
and set the fucker free
