singing fools - the bum rap lyrics
[skit]
come out with your hands on your head
we repeat, come out with your hands on your head immediately
okay, okay, i’m coming out!
#shoot out#
[verse 1]
it’s the alienation of the whole generation
make grandmaster flash the rap sensation
when the leaders of the nation are to shut down the station
gives rise to the voices of human liberation
and it’s a bum rap
and you’re caught in a trap
[verse 2]
when the times get tougher the police get rougher
stopped you cold in the street
’cause you walked [?]
spent a year in the slammer bangin’ tin with hammer
’cause the judge said the sentence would hasten your repentance
a bum rap
[verse 3]
you’re feeling the rage living underage
out of school into college, going from cage to cage
’cause the commissars and planners of [?] appointment
don’t give a god d#mn about youth unemployment
a bum rap
you’re caught in the trap
a bum rap
[verse 4]
when louis riel was invited down to ottawa
a wine cheese exception is not what he got out of it
the p#wn saskatchewans stuck a rope around his neck
and sing “god save the prophet,” dropped him
he dead, the bum rap
poor louis was caught in the trap
the bum rap
the bum rap
caught in the trap
the bum rap
[prime minister pierre trudeau]
..bleeding hearts around who just don’t like to see people with helmets and guns. all i can say is, go on and bleed, but it is more important to keep law and order in this society than to be worried about weak#kneed people who don’t like the looks of a soldier’s helmet
[tim raife of the cbc]
at any cost? at any cost? how far would you go with that, how far would you extend that?
[prime minister pierre trudeau]
just watch me
[verse 5]
[?] and the aussie mp
working a division on the cbc
blowing six and fives, skin the people alive
while the government k!lls to keep the system survive
the bum rap
you’re caught in the trap
bum rap
[verse 6]
capital rules in the land of the free
and the waiting rooms in moscow and the color tvs
whether reagan or begin, or deng xiaoping
old david rockefeller just chasing his thing
bum rap
[verse 7]
mountains of cash, torch the tables, black hash
foreign waters in the rivers of industrial trash
the bum rap
bum rap
[tim raife of the cbc]
…wire#tapping, reducing other civil liberties in some way?
[prime minister pierre trudeau]
yes, i think the society must take every means at its disposal to defend itself against the emergence of a parallel power which defies the elected power in this country and i think that goes to any distance
