I Am the Law Lyrics
My life
I'm a fool for you
You who take no advice
You who think evil doesn't exist
Just because you deny it is true
You're lucky I care
For fools like you
You're lucky I'm there
To stop people doing the things
That you know they are dying to do
You know I am no stranger
I know rules are a bore
But just to keep you from danger
I am the law
A dog must bark
So evil calls
Both in the wild and
Within these walls
You know I am no stranger
I know rules are a bore
But just to keep you from danger
I am the law
I'm a fool for you
You who take no advice
You who think evil doesn't exist
Just because you deny it is true
For fools like you
You're lucky I'm there
To stop people doing the things
That you know they are dying to do
I know rules are a bore
But just to keep you from danger
I am the law
So evil calls
Both in the wild and
Within these walls
I know rules are a bore
But just to keep you from danger
I am the law

I've read that this song was the first song made after the band broke up, which was also when they didin't necessarily make pop music yet. It wouldn't be until 'Sound of the Crowd' they would make more pop oriented songs that would make them famous. With that being said, this song sounds more like a song that would be made by the original lineup than the new one.
This song is about crime from a Policeman's perspective, inspired by Phil's time as a Hospital porter.
