Punishment Fits The Crime Lyrics - Brain Drain - The Ramones

I hear the bells of freedom chimin' 

And inside my heart I feel I'm dyin' 

Wise guys never compromise 

Then they loose their rights and they act surprised 

Jail really cuts ya down to size 

Let the punishment fit the crime 

The footprints on the sand of time 

The philosophy of the poet's rhyme 

Makes a man humble in his prime 

You can go up, down, or sideways 

Be on death row, counting the days 

They say the answers are blowin' in the wind 

And to take yourself out would really be a sin 

You just have to cope and start over again

Let the punishment fit the crime 

The footprints on the sand of time 

The philosophy of the poet's rhyme 

Makes a man humble in his prime 

Little child cries in his sleep 

And life makes promises it can't keep 

And then feel you had, had enough. 

You realize somehow, someway 

Your destiny was planned from the very first day 

Let the punishment fit the crime 

The footprints on the sand of time 

The philosophy of the poet's rhyme 

Makes a man humble in his prime 

Let the punishment fit the crime 

The footprints on the sand of time 

The philosophy of the poet's rhyme 

Makes a man humble in his prime
