Five-O Cool Cats


Tony
Joe
Frank 
Theo
These iconic names, 
for those who don’t know,
are four cool detective cats ... 
television Five-O

Mr. Barretta
Sgt. Friday
Lt. Columbo
T. Kojak ... who loves you, baby!
These Five-O cool cats,
they always make a righteous arrest
Badge of honor
pinned to a bulletproof vest
Blue skin
and a silver star heart
Good always gon win in the end,
that’s the favorite part

Tony Barretta says:
Don’t do the crime
if you can’t do the time

Joe Friday says:
Just the facts ma’am,
ditto says 
his partner officer Gannon

Frank Columbo says:
There’s just one more thing
I gotta do ...
I didn’t come to ask anymore questions,
I came to arrest you

Theo Kojak says;
No if, ands or maybe ... 
(sucking on his lollipop)
Who loves you, baby!

These four Five-O cool cats,
they roll with a righteous bounce
Whether you be white or black,
if you act rat criminal,
these Five-O cool cats will pounce

Castaway Cutout

Glue together
  Flu barretta
   Sick sorry sad soul
     Alone in my bones
       Castaway island moon
         Crying at me dying whilst the suns sighing
           And birds flying
Broken chair broken pieces

  Glue me 
           Together
   Fix me then send me out on a 
    Boat to flee to sea away from 
    Self destruction
                  Into the storm to journey
                              For a better life on the otherside
                              Of the world
