The Copier

歌詞

The policeman is your friend I wonder if the kid is going to fall for it again And if the boys and girls in blue think it's true You know they've got a job to do Because everyone's a soldier where we live And the law is right You must be wrong And the badge is bright As the day is long The stick comes down on the back of his head The stick comes down on the back of his head, and the video ends Did you get arrested for playing music For putting posters on a bored night's beat For being homeless on the street The mayor thinks that it's good To crusade against these lowlifes Who pervade our neighborhood And the law is right So you must be wrong And the badge is bright And the speech is long The stick comes down on the back of his head The stick comes down on the back of his head, and the video ends And the law is right You must be wrong And if the cop is white And the excuses long They call it a beat for a reason They call it a beat for a reason that you don't want to know What it the government closed And nobody noticed it Except the paper news No one really reads, or quite believes What if we elected us a Kennedy Who killed our enemies Who's he gonna fight next?
