Lög og regla [English translation]

Why is there law and order

for hiding this and that?

Bloody footsteps and handcuffs click

The reports say: "He kept falling".

They hit him in the car with batons and fists

Mocked him and insulted him with their coarse tongues.

Nothing visible but a small bruise

It was an accident, we weren't there.

We heard him calling, asking for water,

He also complained that he was cold.

Later that night he was speaking nonsense.

It wasn't until this morning

that we saw that he was dead.

"Don't point at me", says the inspector.

"That night I was rehearsing the police choir.

Ask those who were on duty.

I guarantee that they will tell the truth".
