| | | Artist: | Rage Against The Machine |
| | Album: | Miscellaneous | | Track: | Sound Of The Police | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 186 | | | | Lyrics: | Chorus:
Woop-woop!That's the sound of da police!Woop-woop!
That's the sound of
the beast!
Verse One:
Stand clear! Don man a-talk
You can't stand
where I stand, you can't walk where I walk
Watch out! We run New YorkPolice man come, we bust
him out the park
I know this for a fact, you don't like how I actYou claim I'm sellin'
crack
But you be doin' thatI'd rather say "see ya"Cause I would never be ya
Be a officer?
You WICKED overseer!Ya hotshot, wanna get props and be a
saviour
First show a little
respect, change your behavior
Change your attitude, change your plan
There could never
really be justice on stolen land
Are you really for peace and equality?
Or when my car is
hooked up, you know you wanna follow meYour laws are
minimal
Cause you won't even think
about lookin' at the real criminal
This has got to ceaseCause we be getting HYPED to the sound
of da police!
Chorus
Verse Two:
Now here's a likkle
truth
Open up your eye
While you're checking out the boom-bap, check the
exercise
Take the word "overseer," like a sample
Repeat it very quickly in a crew for
exampleOverseerOverseerOverseerOverseer
Officer, Officer, Officer, Officer!Yeah, officer from
overseer
You need a little clarity?Check the similarity!
The overseer rode around the
plantation
The officer is off patroling all the nation
The overseer could stop you what
you're doing
The officer will pull you over just when he's pursuing
The overseer had the
right to get ill
And if you fought back, the overseer had the right to kill
The officer
has the right to arrest
And if you fight back they put a hole in your chest!
(Woop!) They
both ride horsesAfter 400 years, I've _got_ no choices!
The police them have a little
gun
So when I'm on the streets, I walk around with a bigger one
(Woop-woop!) I hear it all
day
Just so they can run the light and be upon their way
Chorus
Verse
Three:
Check out the message in a rough styleeThe real criminals are the
C-O-P
You check for undercover and the one PD
But just a mere Black man, them want check
me
Them check out me car for it shine like the sun
But them jealous or them vexed cause
them can't afford one
Black people still slaves up til today
But the Black police officer
nah see it that wayHim want a salaryHim want it
So he put on a badge and kill people for
it
My grandfather had to deal with the copsMy great-grandfather dealt with
the
cops
My GREAT grandfather had to deal with the cops
And then my great, great,
great, great... when it's gonna stop | | | |
