PLEASE, PLEASE FEDERAL POLICEMAN

Anno: 2002

Gruppo: CARL KLANG


A strange sensation has seized the nation
Man things are suddenly peculiarly odd
Instead of thugs and thieves
Breakin' down our doors
We now deplore the federal forfeiture squads
Who have a blessing from our Congress
To take a cut of everything they can steal
Here in the land of the free
And the home of the brave
Things have suddenly become unreal

So please, please federal policeman
Please leave my private property alone
Please, please federal policeman
You got no jurisdiction here in my home
When you go breakin' in thru
Somebody's private front door
You do the Constitution bodily harm
So please, please federal policeman
Please leave my private property alone

They got new laws now they're callin' loan fraud
Looks like our law-enforcement grew a new arm
You make misrepresentation on your loan application
You might just have to forfeit the farm
The crazy fact is it's retroactive
Which lets them loot your life historically
You may be dead in your grave
But if you did not behave
You might just forfeit up your family tree

So please, please federal policeman
Don't you be seizin' my poor daddy's farm
Please, please federal policeman
Sometimes I wonder just who's side are you on?
When you go breakin' in thru
Somebody's private front door
You do the Constitution bodily harm
So please, please federal policeman
Don't you be seizin' my poor daddy's farm

The ATF and the FBI just hired the KGB
The ADL's' got a list for sale
But you're anti-Semitic if you call it a conspiracy
Now how could they call it a conspiracy?

My widowed mama they stole her condo
On another federal seizure forfeiture spree
She made the tragic mistake
Of renting to some reprobate
They caught with drugs inside her property
They say her condo somehow is guilty
Now have you ever heard a condo confess?
Here in the land of the fee and the home of the slave
It's a tangled legal web of a mess

So please, please federal policeman
Don't you be stealin' my poor mama's estate
Please, please federal policeman
Now this is ten times worse than White Water Gate
Before you bash right on thru
Somebody's private front door
You better check that oath of office you take
So please, please federal policeman
Don't you be stealin' my poor mamas estate
Don't you be seizin' my poor daddy's farm
Sometimes I wonder just whose side are you on?

So please, please federal policeman
Please leave my private property alone
Please, please federal policeman
You got no jurisdiction here in my home
Please, please federal policeman
Don't you be seizin' my poor daddy's farm
Please, please federal policeman
You do the Constitution bodily harm
Please, please federal policeman
Sometime I wonder just whose side are you on?
Please, please federal policeman
Sometimes I wonder just whose side are you on?
