"Sexx Laws" - Beck

Can’t you hear those cavalry drums
Hijacking your equilibrium
Midnight hags in the mausoleum
Where the pixilated doctors moan
Carnivores in the kowloon night
Breathing freon by the candlelight
Coquettes bitch slap you so polite
Till you thank them
For the tea and sympathy

I want to defy
The logic of all sex laws
Let the handcuffs slip off your wrists
I’ll let you be my chaperone
At the halfway home
I’m a full grown man
But I’m not afraid to cry

Neptune’s lips taste like fermented wine
Perfumed blokes on the ginza line
Running buck wild like a concubine
Who’s mother never held her hand
Brief encounters in mercedes benz
Wearing hepatitis contact lens
Bed and breakfast getaway weekends
With sports illustrated moms

I want to defy
The logic of all sex laws
Let the handcuffs slip off your wrists
I’ll let you be my chaperone
At the halfway home
I’m a full grown man
But I’m not afraid to cry

althom said:

That was Two hundred years ago! There's no criminals in Australia at the present time, as we haven't made any laws after becoming independent from Britain, plus our police force is virtually non existent, and we have no jails.
It's just a free for all, in fact you can get away with murder, as most people do, unless there's a Dingo involved
