The People Vs … Songtext
von Sum 41

Another place, another time, a new direction
Maybe we can try to find some peace in time
Might be just a bit beyond your comprehension
Just a little case of pulling teeth to find

That day after day
You see it slipping away from your hands
You′ve got to say

I know a bad man when I see his face
And now we suffer as the human race
And he's a bad man, but I got faith
To end this misery, he′s got to go
He's got to go, he's got to go, yeah
And all I know, this is no life for me

Well, history repeats itself, it′s almost insignificant
Just another changing of the guard
And I′ve heard it all before, it's nothing new, it′s different
Still it's always hard to try and disregard


That day after day
You see it slipping away from your hands
You′ve got to say

I know a bad man when I see his face
And now we suffer as the human race
And he's a bad man, but I got faith
To end this misery, he′s got to go
He's got to go, he's got to go, yeah
And all I know, this is no life for me

Show me the sign, give me motivation
Make me believe it′s a passing trend
Sometimes I feel like we′ve all been hexed this time
Will this ever end?

Well, day after day
You see it slipping away from your hands
You've got to say it now
There′s no other way, the price is too big to pay
It's about time we′ve got to say


I know a bad man when I see his face
And now we suffer as the human race
And he's a bad man, but I got faith
To end this misery, he′s got to go
He's got to go, he's got to go, yeah
All I know, this is no life for me
