Straight Jacket Lyrics
Police pulled me in on a Saturday night
Accused me of thieving and starting a fight
Never did a job I swear,
cops come from everywhere
They're only picking on my generation
They don't need any provocation
Please the police please mister
Get down on your knees mister
You're going down for a long time Jack
Better put on that straightjacket
Caught me in a corner of a public lav
Empried my pockets took what I had
Waste of time all the pain
Wrong man again
They're only picking on my generation
They don't need any provocation
Chased me from here to the other side of there
Another night inside but I don't care
Beat me up in the rain
Wrong man again
They're only.....etc.
Accused me of thieving and starting a fight
Never did a job I swear,
cops come from everywhere
They're only picking on my generation
They don't need any provocation
Get down on your knees mister
You're going down for a long time Jack
Better put on that straightjacket
Empried my pockets took what I had
Waste of time all the pain
Wrong man again
They're only picking on my generation
They don't need any provocation
Another night inside but I don't care
Beat me up in the rain
Wrong man again
They're only.....etc.

It sounds more like he's saying, "Please, police, freeze, mister." but I have no idea.
yeah sounds like it:D great song:D fucking police!!!
I believe this song is about someone who has committed a crime and is about to face a sentence in jail, so he pleads instanity.
(Your going down for a long time jack, better put on that straight jacket)
