CHORUS
Wake up in the morning go to work
Fire up the truck and drive to Sonoma
Hop on the forklift
Fill up the truck with ten thousand pounds of newspaper
Ten thousand pounds of racist, trash, and lies
Drive the truck back to Santa Rosa put the newspaper in the recycle
So the rich white man can print out the same batch of lies
Again and again and again and again and again and again and again
It's too bad the cops had to kill that man
But he had a broomstick and he was Asian
We know they're all samurai warriors
They're all kung fu masters
They're all just like Jackie Chan
It's too bad the cops had to restrain his wife
Cause she was a registered nurse and she tried to save his life
But that would go against rules and regulations
To just forget at 2 at night
We're so proud of our boys in blue
Cause they always do what's right
I saw Eileen today
I saw her children play in the courtyard
Lately it occurred to me
How does a mama tell her children their dad got killed by the police?
CHORUS
It's too bad the cops had to kill that kid
But someone called in a stolen walkman
The cops they chased him down but he refused to lie face on the ground
And he just walked away
The cop said,
