Abner Louima v. Gov. Pete Wilson

Get down, turn around,

Skinny Boy is on his knees;

and I can't figure out

what I need to do to please you.

There's a man in Brooklyn

who police are messing up 'til dawn,

while The Man in California gives them semi-automatic guns.

And we can't even function

when we're not in a band.

I'm not eating well (as if I didn't have the time),

and I don't do pharmaceuticals, so I got no excuse for the crime,

But they're eating them in Brooklyn

and the hot California sun,

when police in California get their semi-automatic guns.

And how many rounds will they get off

before you get up your hands?

Oh, we can't even function

When we're not in a band.
