Call yourself a judge?

Are you blood* mad?
Why have you decided
What will make me happy?

One hour a week, did you say?
For God's sake, I am their father,
But how can I be their dad,
In the time you've allowed.

Yes, the missus and I have our problems,
She cried and told you her lies,
And you didn't bother to hear my truth.
Now you, your honour, have determined
That my children cannot stay with me?

What gives you the right to decide,
The happiness of my children and of mine?
Where's the justice, where's my right?
Why do you think that I don't care,
After all, they are also mine.

How can you call yourself a judge?
