I`ve declared a truce
So stop your fighting
The marshal is in town
I won`t put up with no big mouth yapping
At least not while I`m around
This is my friend Ace
He`s from the 8th precinct
Nothing goes on that he don`t know
And we`ve been sent
`Cause your arguments
Have been going on too long
And before one of you
Hurts the other one of you
I`m declaring martial law
I came, I saw, I declared martial law
I`m the marshal in the city
The jails are filled with people like you
You oughta listen to your diddy wah diddy
What`s a girl like you doin` with that lamp
You better drop that down on the floor
And son, that isn`t very smart
Kickin` a hole in that door
Hey Ace, will you take a look at this place
And get those neighbors out of the hall
I`m declaring martial law
I came, I saw, I declared martial law
I`m the marshal in the city
And if you stand away
I`ve got something to say
That might even help you
Keep your hands to yourself
And keep your big mouth shut
Don`t you touch nobody with hate
And if all you got is poison in your mouth
Make sure that you don`t speak
It`s 3:30 in the morning
Don`t punch, don`t scratch, don`t bite
Try not to take the garbage of the day
To anyplace but outside
Now me and Mr. Ace are gonna leave this place
And this fighting`s gonna end
And if we`re called back
I`m gonna knock you flat
And stack you end to end
I came, I saw, I declared martial law
I`m the marshal in the city
I came, I saw, I declared martial law
I`m the marshal in the city
I came, I saw, I declared martial law
I`m the marshal in the city
I came, I saw, I declared martial law
I`m the marshal in the city
