The only way to prevent the injustice caused by Breed Specific Legislation is to end BSL!
Lyrics
'Get Tough!'
We’ve had the year from hell thanks to BSL
Broke our hearts n’ broke the wishing well
C’mon mama
Let’s kick this sh** into touch!
Cos when life is blue you got nothing to lose
So kick up some dust in your big boys shoes
N’ get tough!
Well 2013 was as bad as it seemed
You bled our hearts and you wrecked our dreams
Stole good lives and you locked them away
We’re rockin’ you out and we’ll make you pay!
Life is short and the lies corrupt
So take it on the chin
N’ go get tough!
A poor man tries to save his four legged friend
The law brings him down to a pitiful end
C’mon baby
This is time to fight rough!
Cos when you’re all outa luck
You lost everything you got
Hold your head up
N’ go get tough!
'This is not a dog problem, this is a people problem
All the bad things, all the murders, all the atrocities -
Every bad thing that's ever happened in this world
Has been caused - by - people'
