LYRICS
Due to your deadly glare
Your eye-piercing stare
We’re gonna knock ya right outta there
An internal affair

Question authority? How do you dare
Whoever said justice is blind or fair?

X-ray eyes see through I
The I should not lie
Cross my heart and hope to die
My judgment day in the sky

It’s an internal affair
Up the bum ingrown hair
After what you did to my Ma
There’s need for an enema
An investigation of your digestion
An internal investigation

LYRICS
Ta, ta, ta tainted justice
This just is
This just is
Ta, ta, ta tainted justice
Tainted, ain’t it?

Having a seizure
Illegal search and seizure
Breakneck
Hit the deck
What the heck?
Reigning terror in error
Ste, ste, ste, steamroller

Ta, ta, ta tainted justice

LYRICS
I’m not sure the lesson learnt
Was the lesson intended
Just because you’re wearing blue
Doesn’t mean you can do what you want to
Bringing on the blue boneheaded blues

You’re in my face
In my place
Trying to inflict respect
Systemic cyst
On the rectum ready to rupture
A corruption rapture

Come see the light at Gay Church
Church and Gay each and every day
“On your knees, Boy!” Pray!
Pray at Church and Gay
On your knees and pray

LYRICS
Police misconduct coated in corruption
An institution of misrepresentation
Brutal brutality beyond reality
In a cloak of hypocrisy

Lord! Save me
Have mercy

Opaque transparency obscured vision
Runaway truck… off the rails… collision
Backwoods thinking social illusion
Militant morons in collusion

Lord! Save me
Have mercy

Po-po doing a no-no… they don’t know
Civil rights trampled won’t grow
Through brute force respect you’ll bestow?
Enraged blockhead lands a fatal blow

Lord! Save me
Have mercy
Lord! Save me
Have mercy

LYRICS
Abomination
A black-eyed nation
Finding ourselves
In a sticky situation

Doing the same thing over and over agin’
Thinkin’… this time it won’t be the same
That’s just insane
Doing the same crime throughout time
Stuck in a rut of the moral lame
Slain our own brain

Appropriation
Of the Indian nation
Finding ourselves
In a sticky situation

Hypocrites fighting agin’ immigration
Thinkin’ we’ll be the ones to survive a purification
Hallucination
But yes indeed through our greed we succeed
In winning the war on self-mutilation
Degradation

ABOUT THE SONG

This song is about hating hate. I’ve been assaulted by the police more times than anyone I know. I’ve been assaulted by police in Montgomery County, Chester County and Bucks County, Pennsylvania. I’ve witnessed police and federal agencies assaulting people in many more locals. It has never been about race. After reading a bunch of racist posts about police brutality and corruption, I go on to read hate posts about immigration. Hello, Earthlings?!?! Is there anyone home? (Still no sign of intelligent life.)

The video features articles, pictures and footage of police intimidation, police brutality and police corruption by The Doylestown Police Department, The Whitpain Township Police Department, The Lower Providence Police Department, The West Chester Police Department, The Philadelphia Police Department, Homeland Security, U.S. Fish And Wildlife, U.S. Park Rangers and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

LYRICS
Sorry to say…
The documents are based on falsified information
Ya know, falsified info.
Whoa! Falsified info.
Does that blow?

Chorus
How could this be
The Judge and the District Attorney
In a conspiracy
Oh! The hypocrisy

(That’s it! A hypocrite)

Knock me out of my socks
You can’t just alter the docs
… can’t just alter the docs

Ahhhh… Urgh… Ooooo nooooo

Chorus

The police won’t cease breaking the law
Talk about your shock and awe
Talk about your shock and awe

Chorus

It’s hard to chill
When they’re trying to kill

LYRICS
Have you ever been the victim of corruption
And at a loss for what to do
Public corruption in the Justice institution
Consider it ironic? Consider it tainted, too

The police, attorneys and judge to name a few
It’s hard to believe these animals are running the zoo
At a loss for what to do

Have you ever been the victim of a public servant
No one can believe it’s true
The way they manipulate and circumvent
Attempting to leave no clue

The police, attorneys and judge to name a few
It’s hard to believe these animals are running the zoo
At a loss for what to do

LYRICS
The policeman, the judge… the mayor
Have it out for the butcher and the baker
The policeman, the judge… the mayor
Have it out for everyone even the candlestick maker
Bet you find that hard to believe
Sure you find that hard to believe

An eruption of corruption beyond imagination
Devastation to civilization beyond comprehension
Bet you find that hard to believe
Sure you find that hard to believe

LYRICS
If the dog bites
You can lick ’em
When the system fights
Try n’ be a gem

No matter the outcome
We can overcome

If they try to bring you down
Turn you into their clown
Twist you smile to a frown
Time they get out of town

If the pig slights
You can cook ’em
When it comes to rights
Let there be no qualm

No matter the outcome
We can overcome

If they try to bring you down
Turn you into their clown
Twist you smile to a frown
Time they get out of town
