Good morning, or at least it was
Until you fuckin' pedaled up
You smile seems so warm and practiced
You must think you're one of the good ones.
And you really believe yourself, huh?
The Good Cops who grab photo ops
With black boys and shit-eating grins,
Acting like they've wiped the blood off their badges,
Like they're scoring some sort of win,
And I don't quite want to think that's what this is, but...
Yes, all of you are bastards
Yes, all of you fucked up
When you pledged to place the public's safety
Under your cult's sense of justice
Yes, all of you can kiss my ass
If you think I'll smile and wave
When I see you coming down my street,
I'll go the other fucking way
I'm not sure if you've heard the sound
Of freedom weeping in the streets
But I still don't know what makes you think that
I'd like you to look or talk to me
With a gun at your hip and backup on your sleeve
I don't feel safe when you're around,
I don't have much I want to say,
At least, not in your presence, why can't you
Just vow to always stay
With the principles of the American Way,
You know, like minding your own goddamn business
Yes, all of you are bastards
Yes, your work is worth shit
You do not protect or serve me,
Not even a little bit, no
Yes, all of you will catch
My middle fingers when I see you
And I'll never talk to you,
And I will never want to be you
...
No, I don't want to waste my time
Acting friendly for your sake
I've got a life to live,
And you'd better have none to take
Anyway, have a good one,
As if I really care
Justice, peace, fuck the police
I hope that I don't see you anywhere
