Album: N/A


Wake up in the morning go to work

Fire up the truck and drive to Sonoma

Hop on the forklift and load up the truck with 10,000 pounds of newspapers

10,000 pounds of racist, classist lies

Drive the truck back to Santa Rosa

Get the newspapers in the recycle

So the rich white man

Can print up the same batch of lies again and again

Like "it's too bad the cops had to that man, but he had a broomstick

And he was asian

And we all know they're all Kung Fu masters.

Samurai warriors, they're all just like Jackie Chan

It's too bad they had to restrain his wife,

Cuz she was a registered nurse and she tried to save his life

That goes against regulations, We'll just chalk it up to a bad night.

We're so proud our boys in blue

Cuz they always do what's right"

I saw Aylene today

I saw her children play, in the front yard

The thought occurred to me, how does a mother

Tell her children their daddy got killed by the police

Wake up in the morning go to work

Fire up the truck and drive to Sonoma

Hop on the forklift and load up the truck with 10,000 pounds of newspapers

10,000 pounds of racist, classist lies

Drive the truck back to Santa Rosa Get the newspapers in the recycle

So the rich white man

Can print up the same batch of lies again and again

Like, "It's too bad the cops had to kill that kid

But someone called in a stolen walkman

The cops had to chase him down

But he refused to lie face down on the ground

He just walked away, the cops said

His black skin walked away into the black night

So I had to shoot him in the back of the head from 50 feet away

I had to kill him it was self defense

I was afraid he would circle back around behind and kill me"

I saw Cornelius speak today, at Hayward Bart

About how his son's life was stolen away

Over a walkman that wasn't worth more than change

How does a father find justice for a son stolen away

I don't want to hear your newscast anymore, it's bullshit

I don't want to see your headlines anymore, cuz they're bullshit

I don't want to hear your press release anymore, cuz it's bullshit

I don't want to hear your police report anymore, cuz it's bull shit
