Justice Of The Peace Lyrics - Iron Maiden

(Murray/Harris) 

Have you heard on the news 

Another let off madman 

Another screw on the loose 

Is it the judge or the badman 

What's the matter these days 

No one has the courage to put them away 

Nobody has any faith 

'Cause there's a breakdown of justice and order

*Watiting for justice, waiting for justice of the peace 

Waiting for justice, waiting for justice of the peace 

When I remember back the memories of yesteryear (they really say 'yesterday') 

With all the friends and all the times 

When people were carefree 

And walking down the street 

When everyone knew everyone 

And all the houses doors were open 

No had to care those days are gone 

Those days are gone 

*Repeat 

Photos 

I long for the times when you could 

Wander down the street unharmed 

When poeple didn't have much money 

But didn't seem to care 

It must be the cynic in me 

But I don't really like things now 

The violence, the attitudes 

Aggression that you see everyday 

A sick society looks the other way.
