[MC Ren as Court Officer]

Right about now, N.W.A. court is in full effect

Judge Dre presiding

In the case of N.W.A. vs. the Police Department

prosecuting attourneys are: MC Ren, Ice Cube

and Eazy-motherfuckin-E

[Dr. Dre as The Judge]

Order, order, order

Ice Cube, take the motherfuckin stand

Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth

and nothin but the truth so help your black ass?

[Ice Cube as Witness]

You god damn right!

[Dr. Dre]

Well won't you tell everybody what the fuck you gotta say?

[Ice Cube]

Fuck the police comin straight from the underground

A young nigga got it bad cause I'm brown

And not the other color so police think

they have the authority to kill a minority

Fuck that shit, cause I ain't the one

for a punk motherfucker with a badge and a gun

to be beatin on, and thrown in jail

We can go toe to toe in the middle of a cell

Fuckin with me cause I'm a teenager

with a little bit of gold and a pager

Searchin my car, lookin for the product

Thinkin every nigga is sellin narcotics

You'd rather see, me in the pen

than me and Lorenzo rollin in a Benz-o

Beat a police out of shape

and when I'm finished, bring the yellow tape

To tape off the scene of the slaughter

Still gettin swoll off bread and water

I don't know if they fags or what

Search a nigga down, and grabbin his nuts

And on the other hand, without a gun they can't get none

But don't let it be a black and a white one

Cause they'll slam ya down to the street top

Black police showin out for the white cop

Ice Cube will swarm

on ANY motherfucker in a blue uniform

Just cause I'm from, the CPT

Ounk police are afraid of me!

HUH, a young nigga on the warpath

And when I'm finished, it's gonna be a bloodbath

of cops, dyin in L.A

Yo Dre, I got somethin to say

Fuck the police

Fuck the police

Fuck the police

Fuck the police

[Cop] Pull your god damn ass over right now

[NWA] Aww shit, now what the fuck you pullin me over for?

[Cop] Cause I feel like it!

Just sit your ass on the curb and shut the fuck up

[NWA] Man, fuck this shit

[Cop] Aight smartass, I'm takin your black ass to jail!

[Dr. Dre]

MC Ren, will you please give your testimony

to the jury about this fucked up incident?

[MC Ren]

Fuck the police and Ren said it with authority

because the niggaz on the street is a majority

A gang, is with whoever I'm steppin

and the motherfuckin weapon is kept in

a stash box, for the so-called law

Wishin Ren was a nigga that they never saw

Lights start flashin behind me

But they're scared of a nigga so they mace me to blind me

But that shit don't work, I just laugh

because it gives em a hint, not to step in my path

For police, I'm sayin, "Fuck you punk!"

Readin my rights and shit, it's all junk

Pullin out a silly club, so you stand

with a fake-assed badge and a gun in your hand

But take off the gun so you can see what's up

And we'll go at it punk, and I'ma fuck you up!

Make you think I'ma kick your ass

but drop your gat, and Ren's gonna blast

I'm sneaky as fuck when it comes to crime

But I'ma smoke 'em now and not next time

Smoke any motherfucker that sweats me

or any asshole, that threatens me

I'm a sniper with a hell of a scope

Takin out a cop or two, they can't cope with me

The motherfuckin villian that's mad

With potential, to get bad as fuck

So I'ma turn it around

Put in my clip, yo, and this is the sound

{*BOOM, BOOM*} Yeah, somethin like that

but it all depends on the size of the gat

Takin out a police, would make my day

But a nigga like Ren don't give a fuck to say

Fuck the police

Fuck the police

Fuck the police

Fuck the police

[Cop] {*knocking on the door*}

[NWA] Yeah man, what you need?

[Cop] Police, open now

[NWA] Aww shit

[Cop] We have a warrant for Eazy-E's arrest

[Cop] Get down and put your hands up where I can see 'em

(Move motherfucker, move now!)

[NWA] What the fuck did I do, man what did I do?

[Cop] Just shut the fuck up

and get your motherfuckin ass on the floor

(You heard the man, shut the fuck up!)

[NWA] But I didn't do shit

[Cop] Man just shut the fuck up!

[Dr. Dre]

Eazy-E, won't you step up to the stand

and tell the jury how you feel about this bullshit?

[Eazy-E]

I'm tired of the motherfuckin jackin

Sweatin my gang, while I'm chillin in the shack, and

shinin the light in my face, and for what?

Maybe it's because I kick so much butt

I kick ass -- or maybe cause I blast

on a stupid-assed nigga when I'm playin with the trigger

of any Uzi or an AK

Cause the police always got somethin stupid to say

They put out my picture with silence

Cause my identity by itself causes violence

The E with the criminal behavior

Yeah, I'm a gangsta, but still I got flavor

Without a gun and a badge, what do ya got?

A sucker in a uniform waitin to get shot

by me, or another nigga

And with a gat it don't matter if he's smaller or bigger

(MC Ren: Size ain't shit, he's from the old school fool)

And as you all know, E's here to rule

Whenever I'm rollin, keep lookin in the mirror

And ears on cue, yo, so I can hear a

dumb motherfucker with a gun

And if I'm rollin off the 8, he'll be the one

that I take out, and then get away

While I'm drivin off laughin this is what I'll say

The verdict

[Dre] The jury has found you guilty of bein a redneck

White bread, chickenshit motherfucker

[Cop] But wait, that's a lie! That's a god damn lie!

[Dre] Get him out of here!

[Cop] I want justice!

[Dre] Get him the fuck out my face!

[Cop] I want justice!

[Dre] Out, right now!

[Cop] Fuck you, you black mother-fuckers!

Fuck the police!

Fuck the police!

Fuck the police!
