    Breaking the Law - Judas Priest
    When one of the songs is titled Breaking the Law, there's no need for a pole.

    Why are you trying to subvert my democracy?

    AC DC version. Made me skip right over Dirty Deeds

    Breaking the Law is kind of gay

    Really when you think about, any songs about sodomy before the mid 80s or so.

    If I used a Warren Zevon song it would have been Excitable Boy. Everyone should murder their prom date.

    Also, you forgot Cocaine Blues, by The Man in Black. (He's in the Rock and Roll HOF I believe)

    But the winner, which you also fucked away, is Hey Joe, by Jimi Hendrix.

    I like you, so I will forgive these transgressions.

    p.s. If you want something hard listen to Exodus "The Ballad of Leonard and Charles."

    Thank me later.

    It's hard...

    Sometimes 9 options isn't enough to get all the worthy contenders out there. And shame on me for the "Hey Joe" admission; this is a fuck up on my part. I can actually play the opening riff pretty spot on my non (Mexi) Strat. So well in fact, that were I a single guy I could probably get gums into some beaver puppy style just off one riff.

    Excitable Boy is awesome. Lawyers, Guns, and Money just seemed more relevant in the current climate.

    I clearly seperated the squire and mexi. Now puppys beautiful vintage sunburst stratocaster, made in the USofA, is in a class by itself. Generally anyone who uses fenderbender is either a shitty driver or plays a bright red mexi. Oh, the vintage tele sitting next to it is something to behold too, which of course sits next to the vintage 65 SG, and several feet away the martin d28 .

    The martin in a leg spreader. A few strums and my gums are buried in beaver. Big black beaver. I try and sing after she squirts but my mouth dries up like desert dirt, my lips the cracks. A quick sip of bookers whisky wets the whistle and im back in action,, resoiling her already crusty panties. The Martin, like a grand piano, always gets the job done. Your mexi strat might make you 2 bits at the public market, but hey, its a start.

    If we're going to punish transgressors for sins of omission, then let's impale Yellow Snow for leaving out Gallow's Pole

    Do songs about false convictions of breaking the law count?

    If we are doing songs about breaking the law through sexual deviancy I win and it's not even fucking close. Crimes: sodomy, assault, pegging.

    Warren Zevon - Mr. Bad Example (live version) is one of my faves

    https://youtu.be/8YdCnrXrnKI
    I started as an altar boy working at the church
    Learning all my holy moves doing some research
    Which led me to a cash box labelled "Children's Fund"
    I'd leave the change and tuck the bills inside my cummerbund
    I got a part-time job at my father's carpet store
    Laying tactless stripping and housewives by the score
    I loaded up their furniture and took it to Spokane
    Auctioned off every last Naugahyde divan
    I'm very well acquainted with the seven deadly sins
    I keep a busy schedule trying to fit them in
    I'm proud to be a glutton and I don't have time for sloth
    I'm greedy and I'm angry and I don't care who I cross
    [CHORUS]
    I'm, intruder in the dirt
    I like to have a good time and I don't care who gets hurt
    I'm, take a look at me
    I'll live to be a hundred and go down in history
    Of course I went to law school and got a law degree
    And counseled all my clients to plead insanity
    Then worked in hair replacement swindling the bald
    Where very few are chosen, fewer still are called
    Then on to Monte Carlo play chemin de fer
    I threw away the fortune I made transplanting hair
    I put my last few francs down on a prostitute
    Who took me up to her room to perform the flag salute
    Whereupon I stole her passport and her wig
    And headed for the airport and the midnight flight, you dig?
    Fourteen hours later I was down in Adelaide
    Looking through the want ads sipping Foster's in the shade
    I opened up an agency somewhere down the line
    To hire aboriginals to work the opal mines
    But I attached their wages and took a whopping cut
    And whisked away their workman's comp and pauperized the lot
    [CHORUS]
    I bought a first class ticket on Malaysian Air
    Landed in Sri Lanka none the worse for wear
    I'm thinking of retiring from all my dirty deals
    See you in the next life, wake me up for meals
    Alabama 3 - Bullet Proof

    https://youtu.be/zWvq7-3S6BQ

    Lively, lively, lively, lively, lively
    Let this world survive, survive me
    Been there for long time
    Ya, I'm headin' back
    Love my life thats why I'm livin' like that
    Know how to move
    Know when to stay
    Know how to get shit out of my way
    What is my message?
    Well that will be law
    Comin to you from above
    Word


    I got fifteen felonies
    I got twenty three misdemeanors
    I got APB's from Anchorage all the way down to cleveland
    A million dollar reward
    They want me alive or dead
    They gonna put three in my body
    Gonna put three in my head


    Up against the wall
    Snipers on the roof
    Thought I was a gonner baby
    I'm bullet proof yeah
    Up against the wall
    Snipers on the roof
    Thought I was a gonner baby
    I'm bullet proof, yeah


    Put the searchlights on me
    A hundred hound dogs on my trail
    And I'll skip the state like Jesse James
    Tennessee law man on my tail
    The helicopters circle
    Like vultures in the midday sun
    I swear to God
    I got the motherfuckin' government in the sights
    Oh my God well, go


    Up against the wall
    Snipers on the roof
    Thought I was a gonner baby
    I'm bullet proof yeah
    Up against the wall
    Snipers on the roof
    Thought I was a gonner baby
    I'm bullet proof


    Grease me, prime me, release me, survive me
    Step back look at this light before it blinds me
    Been there a long time won't go back
    Love my life guess I'm livin like that, who
    I take a vibe and I will take it much stronger
    Got my life to live and I won't be here much longer
    No 'morrow
    Know the way that I walk is the way that I talk
    Is the truth, I'm bullet proof


    I got fifteen felonies
    I got twenty three misdemeanors
    I got APB's from Anchorage all the way down to cleveland
    They got me
    Up against the wall
    Snipers on the roof
    Thought I was a gonner baby
    I'm bullet proof yeah
    Up against the wall
    Snipers on the roof
    Thought I was a gonner baby
    I'm bullet proof, yeah


    They got me up against the wall, yeah
    Up against the wall
    Up against the wall
    You mutha fucka get
    Up against the wall

    Alabama 3 - Who The Fuck Is John Sinclair?

    https://youtu.be/HL76gV3wK3Q?t=40s


    Ride ride on
    Keep on rolling till
    The wheels come off

    May your shackles fall like
    Feathers from your ankles
    May your captors be caught in
    Your headlights
    May the mechanics of the Lord
    Make your engines roll and roar
    On your long day's journey into the night

    Ride ride on
    Keep on rolling till
    The wheels come off

    We have walked to
    The end of nowhere
    We have been walking since
    The beginning of time
    Like the Bedouin we have
    Walked the immeasurable desert
    We have always walked with the wind behind

    Don't stop no walking
    Brixton
    Merthyr Tydfil
    Manchester
    Mogadishu
    Glasgow
    Tblisi
    Bogota
    Detroit

    Who the fuck is John Sinclair?

    Ride ride on
    Keep on rolling till
    The wheels come off
    Ride ride on

    Breaking the Law - Judas Priest
    There I was completely wasted, out of work and down
    All inside it's so frustrating as I drift from town to town
    Feel as though nobody cares if I live or die
    So I might as well begin to put some action in my life

    Breaking the law, breaking the law
    Breaking the law, breaking the law
    Breaking the law, breaking the law
    Breaking the law, breaking the law

    So much for the golden future I can't even start
    I've had every promise broken, there's anger in my heart
    You don't know what it's like, you don't have a clue
    If you did you'd find yourselves doing the same thing too

    Breaking the law, breaking the law
    Breaking the law, breaking the law
    Breaking the law, breaking the law
    Breaking the law, breaking the law

    You don't know what it's like

    Breaking the law, breaking the law
    Breaking the law, breaking the law
    Breaking the law, breaking the law
    Breaking the law, breaking the law

    Breaking the law, breaking the law
    Breaking the law, breaking the law
    Breaking the law, breaking the law
    Breaking the law, breaking the law
