Paragraph Lyric
Did ya hear what the police did?
Shot and killed the neighbor's kid,
An unarmed woman shot down four or five times
And I lived right across the street,
Had to let it all sink in
Because when the evidence is shaky
And they lose the video tape,
Call your mom and tell her
You're the biggest drug dealer in the state.
That's not quite the way I'd like to go.
How do I sing this to a black family?
How do I sing this to a white family?
Same ol' song got sung to me.
They murdered all your leaders
And took away your guns
And then you got some thugs for leaders
And gave you back your guns;
What do you expect?
And all I ever wanted was for us to get along,
And now we can't get along.
Is that what you wanted,
'Cause it ain't what I wanted.
Did ya hear what the police did?   Shot and killed the neighbor's kid,   An unarmed woman shot down four or five times   And I lived right across the street,   Had to let it all sink in   Because when the evidence is shaky   And they lose the video tape,   Call your mom and tell her    You're the biggest drug dealer in the state.   That's not quite the way I'd like to go.   How do I sing this to a black family?   How do I sing this to a white family?   Same ol' song got sung to me.   They murdered all your leaders   And took away your guns   And then you got some thugs for leaders   And gave you back your guns;   What do you expect?   And all I ever wanted was for us to get along,   And now we can't get along.   Is that what you wanted,   'Cause it ain't what I wanted.
