fifteen - Stolen Life слова песни
Wake up in the morning go to workFire up the truck and drive to SonomaHop on the forklift and load up the truck with 10,000 pounds of newspapers10,000 pounds of racist, classist liesDrive the truck back to Santa RosaGet the newspapers in the recycleSo the rich white manCan print up the same batch of lies again and againLike "it`s too bad the cops had to that man, but he had a broomstickAnd he was asianAnd we all know they`re all Kung Fu masters.Samurai warriors, they`re all just like Jackie ChanIt`s too bad they had to restrain his wife,Cuz she was a registered nurse and she tried to save his lifeThat goes against regulations, We`ll just chalk it up to a bad night.We`re so proud our boys in blueCuz they always do what`s right"I saw Aylene todayI saw her children play, in the front yardThe thought occurred to me, how does a motherTell her children their daddy got killed by the policeWake up in the morning go to workFire up the truck and drive to SonomaHop on the forklift and load up the truck with 10,000 pounds of newspapers10,000 pounds of racist, classist liesDrive the truck back to Santa Rosa Get the newspapers in the recycleSo the rich white manCan print up the same batch of lies again and againLike, "It`s too bad the cops had to kill that kidBut someone called in a stolen walkmanThe cops had to chase him downBut he refused to lie face down on the groundHe just walked away, the cops saidHis black skin walked away into the black nightSo I had to shoot him in the back of the head from 50 feet awayI had to kill him it was self defenseI was afraid he would circle back around behind and kill me"I saw Cornelius speak today, at Hayward BartAbout how his son`s life was stolen awayOver a walkman that wasn`t worth more than changeHow does a father find justice for a son stolen awayI don`t want to hear your newscast anymore, it`s bullshitI don`t want to see your headlines anymore, cuz they`re bullshitI don`t want to hear your press release anymore, cuz it`s bullshitI don`t want to hear your police report anymore, cuz it`s bull shit
