cop rock - for the record lyrics

do ya think the cops have too much power?
do ya think they use excessive force?
tell us was your life in danger?
tell us did ya feel any remorse?
are you part of an organized outcry?
are you actin’ on your own?
would you agree this case has racial overtones?

the cameras are rolling
so bare your soul
for the record
i’m on a tight deadline
say what’s on your mind
for the record

roll tape
zoom in tight
gimme one good soundbite
for the record

how did it feel when you pulled the trigger?
tell us, what wеnt through your mind?
can justice really be sеrved here?
will the punishment fit the crime?
do you see a political future?
do you think the judge will let you off?
the public wants some answers
here’s your chance to talk!
“black people will no longer be silent or submissive. just like we will rise up in soweto and transkei and bophuthatswana, so will we rise up in south central los angeles.”

“this man thinks that los angeles is a racist city. maybe it is. maybe it isn’t. but i’m not a racist. i’m not an assassin. i’m just a cop.”

the cameras are rolling
so bare your soul
for the record
i’m on a tight deadline
say what’s on your mind
for the record
you’re wired for sound
and we’re writing it down
for the record
this is crack reporting
tell your story
for the record

make sure that it’s sensational
highly confrontational
for the record
