will,feel it too<br \/>\nTheir families will suffer<br \/>\nAt the moment they do<br \/>\nKnow their husbands are brain washed<br \/>\nThe Riot police<br \/>\nClad in their hideous form of release<br

it coming<br \/>\nNot the  horses and dogs<br \/>\nBut it fell on deaf ears<br \/>\nWhether the riot squad<br \/>\nThought anything of it<br \/>\nPerhaps of their god<br \/>\nWho was not the
