We lie and cheat the game, corruption’s everywhere
We try to buy our justice, lies are hard to bear
When our days are over cross the great divide
The final day is coming, he knows wrong from right
Cut out the way it has been done
Just keep the fear inside
Nowhere to hide, nowhere to run
Your life is on the line
Take the word of the arbiter
He always gets it right
Take the word of the arbiter
If it’s left or if it’s right
Hmm, with him there’s no objection, you can’t have a deal
The word he said is final, punishment’s for real
Talking never moves, you hear it in your head
Body shaken terror and he cuts you dead
Cut out the way it has been done
Just keep the fear inside
Nowhere to hide, nowhere to run
Your life’s on the line
Take the word of the arbiter
His word is always right
Take the word of the arbiter
Nothing left and nothing right
Cut out the way it has been done
Just keep the fear inside
Nowhere to hide, nowhere to run
Your life’s on the line
Take the word of the arbiter
He always gets it right
Take the word of the arbiter
If it’s left or if it’s right
Take the word of the arbiter
His word is always right
Take the word of the arbiter
Nothing left and nothing right
