Down on the beat   They're lining up everyone   Who's got a mind on a bullet and a mouth like a gun   Boys and girls   Stripped to their innocence   We run some real weak links in this long chain of events      Cop party and you better not go   Spend the rest of your life in this tv show   Cop party and you better run   Because they're not gonna stop until they've had their fun   Until justice is done      They're checking out   Everybody with a fine-toothed comb   So leave your keys in the car and the wisecracking at home   Spread 'em, boy   And don't you turn around   We're gonna make you real sorry that you ever come into this town      Cop party and you better not go   Spend the rest of your life in this tv show   Cop party and you better run   Because they're not gonna stop until they've had their fun      Summer is here, we're out in the street   The verdict is already in   Turn up the music, here comes the heat      Cop party and you better not go   You'll spend the rest of your life in this tv show   Cop party and you better run   Because they're not gonna stop until they've had their fun      Cop party and you better not go
