    L.A.P.D.
      
         When cops are taking care of business I can
    understand 
         But the L.A. story's gone way out of hand 
         Their acts of aggression, they say they're justified 
         But it seems an obsession has started from the inside 
         They're shooting anyone who even tries to run 
         They're shooting little kids with toy guns 
         Take it to a jury but they don't give a damn 
         Because the one who tells the truth is always the policeman 
     
         CHORUS 
         Beat all the niggers 
         Beat whoever you see 
         Don't need a reason 
         (We're) L.A.P.D. 
     
         The city of L.A. feels like a prison  
         With helicopters overhead and bullets whizzing by 
         Martial law ain't no solution 
         Police brutality's just social pollution 
     
         Beat all the white trash 
         Beat whoever you see 
         Don't need a reason 
         (We're) L.A.P.D. 
     
         They say they're keeping the peace 
         But I'm not buying it because a billy club ain't much of a
    pacifier 
         "Protecting your freedom" 
         Now that's just a lie 
         It's an excuse for power that's more like an alibi 
         Law and order doesn't really matter 
         When you're the one getting bruised and battered 
         You take it to a jury, they'll throw it in your face 
         Because justice in L.A. comes in a can of mace 
     
         CHORUS
