I just can't take much more of this oppression
I'm going out of my head and it's war not oppression
I'm gonna go out for a war
I'm gonna sit down and have talk
they're asking me how and they're asking me why
have you ever seen grown men cry

police police police oppression, police police police oppression

really find it hard even walking round the streets
hey I know you son I'll knock you off your feet
same number a million times before,
shut your mouth son or I'll knock you on the floor

police police police oppression, police police police oppression

I just can't take much more of this oppression
I'm going out of my head and it's war not oppression
I'm gonna go out for a war I'm gonna sit down and have talk
they're asking me how and they're asking me why have you ever seen grown men cry

police police oppression police police oppression

lying in the cells is really no fun
cut the bricks learn some tricks
ask me no questions and I'll tell you no lies
ain't doing nothing really a crime

police police police oppression
police police police oppression
