Translation
Bilingual
Pissy boys in blue behind the trees
Making out they're cruisers on their knees
Don't you say a word, you fool
Keep your mouth shut, keep it cool
You'll get by
Risk is minimal
You'll get by
You're no criminal
Figure of the father, strong and kind
Figure of the sadist, cold and blind
Masochistic mentally
Living in a cemetery
You'll get by
Risk is minimal
You'll get by
You're no criminal
Figures of authority
So full of fear (figures of authority)
Dealing out the punishment
It's a fine career
Figures of authority
Distorted view (figures of authority)
High up in their offices
Dropping bricks on you
Figures of authority
Protecting our society
Figures of authority
From misfits and minorities
Paranoia festers like a growth
Confidence is what you need the most
Someone's firing warning shots
In the land that time forgot
You'll get by
Risk is minimal
You'll get by
You're no criminal
Figures on the blackboard don't add up
Figures in a nightmare fill your cup
Like the eagle has to fly
You don't have to justify
You'll get by
Risk is minimal
You'll get by
You're no criminal
Figures of authority
So full of fear (figures of authority)
Dealing out the punishment
It's a fine career
Figures of authority
Distorted view (figures of authority)
High up on a mountain
Throwing rocks at you
Figures of authority
Protecting our society
Figures of authority
From misfits and minorities
Figures of authority
Victorian hypocrisy
Figures of authority
From dirty keyhole fantasies
Figures of authority
To keep the nation pure and free
Figures of authority
We must not let the children see
Figures of authority
Let's keep it in the family
Figures of authority
Protecting our society
Figures of authority
Let's keep it in the family
Figures of authority
Protecting our society
Figures of authority
