WHO'S IN CHARGE
WHO’S IN CHARGE
I GOT MUGGED ONE DAY AND WENT TO THE POLICE SHOP. I WAS REALLY IN A PANIC; I WAS LOOKING FOR A COP. CAN SOME ONE TELL ME PLEASE, WHO’S THE MAN IN CHARGE? THE MAN BEHIND THE DESK SAID WHY THAT WOULD BE THE SARGE. HE’ S REALLY KIND OF BUSY SON, I’M AFRAID YOU’LL HAVE TO WAIT. I SAID I’M KIND OR BLEEDING AND IT’S GETTING KIND OF LATE.
THESE DAYS WHEN YOU’RE IN TROUBLE I’M AFRAID YOU’RE ALL ALONE. UNLESS YOU’RE WITH YOUR FAMILY YOU’RE REALLY ON YOUR OWN.
BLACK LIVE MATTER, GO TELL THAT TO A COP. HE’LL BREAK BOTH YOUR LEGS AND MAKE YOUR HEAD A MOP. YOU THINK THAT YOU CAN TRUST HIM JUST BECAUSE HE’S WEARING BLUE. WELL MAYBE YES OR MAYBE NO YOU HAVEN’T GOT A CLUE. WALKING DOWN THE STREET YOU BETTER PACK THE GEAR. EVERONE’S SO DIRTY, YOU DON’T KNOW WHO TO FEAR.
THESE DAYS WHEN YOUR IN TROUBLE I’M AFRAID YOU’RE ALL ALONE. UNLESS YOU’RE WITH YOUR FAMILY, YOU’RE REALLY ON YOUR OWN.
I WAS WEARING A FUNNY CLOWN MASK, USING IT FOR A PROP. EVERYTHING WAS FINE UNTIL I PULLED UP ON A COP. HE DIDN’T FIND IT FUNNY, FOUND NO HUMOR IN IT AT ALL IT THEN BECAME APPARENT I WAS HEADED FOR A FALL. I TRIED TO MAKE HIM SMILE, I SAID I WISHED HIM WELL. NEXT THING THAT I NEW, I WAS SITTING IN A CELL.
THESE DAYS WHEN YOUR IN TROUBLE I’M AFRAID YOU’RE ALL ALONE. UNLESS YOU’RE WITH YOUR FAMILY, YOU’RE REALLY ON YOUR OWN.
