Police Story

This fucking city
Is run by pigs
They take the rights away
From all the kids
Understand
We're fighting a war we can't win
They hate us-we hate them
We can't win-no way
Walk down the street
I flip them off
They hit me across the head
With a billy club
Understand
We're fighting a war
We can't win
They hate us-we hate them
We can't win-no way
Nothing I do, nothing I say
I tell them to go get fucked
They put me away
Understand
We're fighting a war
We can't win
They hate us-we hate them
We can't win-no way
I go to court
For my crime
Stand in line pay bail
I may serve time
Understand
We're fighting a war
We can't win
They hate us-we hate them
We can't win-no way
