the haymarket squares - sheriff joe lyrics

[verse 1]
law enforcement has become a joke around here
the biggest terrorist in town is ruling us with fear
silencing his critics and arresting all his foes
he’s the people’s enemy, that sheriff joe
the toughest sheriff has a stack of warrants he ignores
so he can focus on a war he’s waged against the poor
punishment for all who have a victimless vice
and he doesn’t care if it destroys your life
so many end up paying with thеir lives
he charges pеople in the poorest neighborhoods in town
he pulls them over for no reason, but for being being brown
but this country was built on stolen land
and he’ll be d+mned before he ever gets any back

[chorus]
sheriff joe’s got an evil heart, sheriff joe’s got an evil mind
sheriff joe’s got simple, evil answers when it comes to crime
sheriff joe’s got an ugly problem ‘cause the people finally know
the truth about arpaio, now it’s time for joe to go

[verse 2]
he brags about the prison meals at only 20 cents
140 fahrenheit inside their crowded tents
he doesn’t care about the legal rights that he’s defiled
and many haven’t even had a trial
in ’96 an inmate took a tent stake to the head
in ’03 the aryans beat a man to death
a diabetic woman needed insulin and begged
arpaio’s crew just let her die instead
so many more lives on arpaio’s head
he should get on his knees and publicly confess his sins
take a photo op and turn his resignation in
it’s law enforcement based on the color of your skin
this is for the ones murdered at arpaio’s inn
