hello yes. Charlie. Genius, please verify me, honey. I don’t like this anymore than you do. I’m making us both look like chumps. but you forced my hand.
this song is about policing in America, which I, a white guy who lived in the suburbs and went to private schools his whole life, am the foremost...
No justice and no peace
No respite and no release
This is the greatest country on the Earth
If you love getting fucked with and fleeced
One nation of two cliques
They share cities but never mix
One gets the comforting kisses of a mother or lover
The other the maw of the beast
They’re putting cops on the subways
They’re putting cops in the Subway restaurants
Y'all know we’ll all bе cops someday
Drone strike thе homeless from your cabin in Vermont
How many murders does justice require
Another grieving mother at another sham trial
I don’t think it’s real, but I get the appeal
Of blaming reptilians or Jews
Y’all go and scoff and you roll your eyes
Give Joe Arapio a Nobel Peace Prize
But if you got a landlord then you oughta know
That they protect and serve him before you
They’re putting cops on the subways
They’re putting cops in the Subway restaurants
You know we’ll all be cops someday
Drone strike the homeless from a cabin in Vermont
Surely the next law will fix us
Surely the next law will really do the trick
Some brand new halfwit to scold me
One more committee of legalist hypocrites
They’re putting cops in the schools now
Got a whole precinct for only your front lawn
Y'all know we’ll all be cops someday
Greet each other with a side arm and baton
