Os Paralamas Do Sucesso

“Selvagem”

A polícia apresenta suas armas
Escudos transparentes, cassetetes
Capacetes reluzentes
E a determinação de manter tudo
Em seu lugar

O governo apresenta suas armas
Discurso reticente, novidade inconsistente
E a liberdade cai por terra
Aos pés de um filme de Godard

A cidade apresenta suas armas
Meninos nos sinais, mendigos pelos cantos
E o espanto está nos olhos de quem vê
O grande monstro a se criar

Os negros apresentam suas armas
As costas marcadas, as mãos calejadas
E a esperteza que só tem quem tá
Cansado de apanhar

The Strokes

“New York City Cops”

And the hours they went to slow
I said every night
She just can’t stop sayin’:
“New York City cops
New York City cops
New York City cops
They ain’t too smart
New York City cops
New York City cops
New York City cops
They ain’t too smart”

Fugazi

“Great Cop”

Got a lot of questions for me
You got a lot of questions for me
Got your finger pointing at me
Distrusted
I look for wires when I’m talking to you
You’d make a great cop

The Dicks

“Hate The Police”

Dicks hate policemen and it’s true
You won’t find justice it’ll find you
It’ll find you
Ya it’ll find you

Alkaline Trio

“Cop”

Wonder what it was that made you this way.
Maybe as a baby you dropped your rattle
And it still rattles you to this day.
You better practice your evil looks in the mirror,
They won’t work on me.
Slowly crawling up from the down low.
The other cops still call you “fatso.”
Short fuse and a top to blow.
Unhappy wife, shitty life, hit the bottle.
Your whole world dropped from under you.
Left you with sorry excuses, left you with meaningless things to prove.
Like why you became a cop, why did you become a cop?

Dead Kennedys

“Police Truck”

Got a black uniform and a silver badge
Playin’ cops for real/playin’ cops for pay

Let’s ride, lowride

Pull down your dress here’s a kick in the ass
Let’s beat you blue ‘til you shit in your pants
Don’t move, child got a big black stick
There’s six of us babe, so suck on my dick

And ride, ride how we ride
Let’s ride, lowride

The left newspapers might whine a bit
But the guys at the station they don’t give a shit
Dispatch calls “Are you doin’ something wicked?”
“No siree, Jack, we’re just givin’ tickets”

As we ride, ride, how we ride
Let’s ride, lowride

Black Flag

“Police Story”

This fucking city is run by pigs.
They take the rights away from all the kids.
Understand we’re fighting a war we can’t win.
They hate us, we hate them.

We can’t win, no way.
Walking down the street.
I flip them off.
They hit me across the head with a billy club.

Operation Ivy

“Officer”

Do you have to force yourself with power and control
Do feel a need to live your life playing up a role
Intimidating people with your wall of sight and sound
You and your kind destroy our underground

All the happiness that you have destroyed
All the brutal tactics that you always employ
All the fucking bullshit when will it ever stop
The comparison is obvious: you’re just a fucking cop
Officer – you act like an animal, you’re out of control
Officer – what the hell is wrong with you

Inner Circle

“Bad Boys”

Bad boys, bad boys whatcha gonna do?
Whatcha gonna do when they come for you?
Bad boys, bad boys whatcha gonna do?
Whatcha gonna do when they come for you?

Nobody now give you no break
Police now give you no break
Not soldier man give you no break
Not even you idren now give you no breaks
