SWALLOWED ALIVE
No "human right" is an excuse for doing crime,
no "tradition or culture" keeps us from the grime,
right is right and stands above them all,
we know right from wrong and don't need a call.
Payday will come to one and all,
then we must stand strong and tall,
there is no licence to cover crime,
we cannot pay it with dollar and dime.
Once involved it swallows us fast,
holds us tight to the very last,
from doing the evil we become the evil,
no longer able to escape from the devil.
