Sirens stopped, they said get your ass up
And pick it up and start runnin

Poli-poli-police-police—police-police
Police brutality all day long on your face
Yeah all over the place
Uh, you think that it’s gonna be wrong

So, I started running when I saw the billy club
Then I jumped the fence and that was all there was
I jumped the fence I started runnin and I got hit by a Ford

Trashin your brain every single day
We’re gonna do it lemon soda style
