Verse1

Ewell let me tell you why I dBont like cops

well the sC♯tory starts when my boy DAavers got dropped

in the streeEts

by the car that swerved to the cBurb

and almost hit me

sC♯o Davers flipped him the biArd

ya know he with he diEdn't

and then the guy ?he knew we slide? in standing

two men got out and then the shit hit the fan

as they ran

to a man on the streets

they pick him up off his feet

and witnesses just standing around

watching him get beat to the ground

so Davers pleaded and tried to steal away from the man

until his friends on the side came in and gave him a hand

first one in was Rob

with his right hook from way back far

and layed him out

over the hood of the car

and everything was goin, well just as planned

until the two men started screamin

officer down

no one knew that they were the RCMP

because, they were off from duty

had no uniforms or badges to see

to show their true identity

well Rob said they just looked like gangsters to me

and beating up on society

so I had to jump in to set my friends free

Bridge

Ewell how do you sAleep at nCight

I feel sBorry

Eyou know that Aits not rCight

to get your glBory

by pushing people around

you put them down to the ground

but everybodys got the same fuckin story

about how ya done nothing for them now

and how you done almost nothing for no one

so get your badge and your gun

and get that man on the run

the one thats done nothing wrong

but you dont seem to care

Verse2

well it makes me so mad

because it's so unfair

and steady charged for assaulting an officer

a middle finger thrown up into the air

and now he asks to go to court

and get a lawyer

well in the courtroom I hope the judge speaks

'down with interegation..

assault and obstruction, the charges that you're facing

I should lock you up and throw away the key'

and Rob said they just looked like gangsters to me

gangsters to me, gangsters to me

That's why I dont like cops

or the RCMP

those fuckin piggies are just gangsters to me, yea

whatever happened to the 'serve and protect'? no no

you throw your powers around

and you still expect me to take it laying down

down on the ground

for me to take it laying down

down on the ground
