Cop Killer Lyrics

This next record is dedicated to some personal friends of mine, the LAPD.
For every cop that has ever taken advantage of somebody, beat 'em down or
hurt 'em, because they got long hair, listen to the wrong kinda music,
wrong color, whatever they thought was the reason to do it. For every one
of those fuckin' police, I'd like to take a pig out here in this parkin'
lot and shoot 'em in their mothafuckin' face.

COP KILLER!

Yeah!

I got my black shirt on
I got my black gloves on
I got my ski mask on
This shit's been too long
I got my twelve guage sawed off
I got my headlights turned off
I'm 'bout to bust some shots off
I'm 'bout to dust some cops off

I'm a...

COP KILLER, better you than me
COP KILLER, fuck police brutality!
COP KILLER, I know your family's grievin' ... FUCK 'EM!
COP KILLER, but tonight we get even

I got my brain on hype
Tonight'll be your night
I got this long-assed knife
and your neck looks just right
My adrenaline's pumpin'
I got my stereo bumpin'
I'm 'bout to kill me somethin'
A pig stopped me for nuthin'!

COP KILLER, it's better you than me
COP KILLER, fuck police brutality!
COP KILLER, I know your family's grievin' ... FUCK 'EM!
COP KILLER, but tonight we get even

DIE, DIE, DIE, PIG, DIE!
FUCK THE POLICE!

COP KILLER, it's better you than me
COP KILLER, fuck police brutality!
COP KILLER, I know your family's grievin' ... FUCK 'EM!
COP KILLER, but tonight we get even

FUCK THE POLICE!

FUCK THE POLICE, for Daryl Gates
FUCK THE POLICE, for Rodney King
FUCK THE POLICE, for my dead homies
FUCK THE POLICE, for your freedom
FUCK THE POLICE, don't be a pussy
FUCK THE POLICE, have some mothafuckin' courage
FUCK THE POLICE, sing along!

COP KILLER!

I'm a muthafuckin' COP KILLER!

Just tonight, cops gave me and my buddies shit, we were down at a BASEBALL FIELD WITH A BASEBALL BAT, NORMAL RIGHT? Well the Po decided that i was breaking shit with that baseball bat, so they pushed me against the car and searched me, and this one cop kept grabbing my ass when he was searching me,and they took our names ect, and then they insisted that we smoked weed (well we do, but still) they were giving us shit about how we shouldnt smoke weed because they KNOW THAT EVERY KID IN FALMOUTH, MA SMOKES WEED, So all i gotta say,is; -FUCK THE FALMOUTH MASSACHUSETTES POLICE-

I fell in love with Ice T because of this song.

Lyrically, this is two smoking barrels of imagery pointed straight at the corrupt LA police department. Maligned by a racist establishment (the gun-toting Charleton Heston came out of his dotage to campaign against it), "Cop Killer" stands as one of the most significant US protest songs since the early era of Dylan -- think of it as "The Times They Are A-Changin'" for an urban American audience disillusioned by the broken promise of the Civil Rights era. Better raps have been written -- Grand Master Flash's "The Message" soars above it in complexity and ambition -- but few have been as scorching.

I like this song, but heavy metal by Ice-T is.. well... I think rap suits him better. Still its cool somehow.

Ice-T is a metal badass, I love his metal, and I love how he was able to mastermind this song just right to make the most impact with it....i mean look how many songs piss off the vice president and half of america right?

great song, i dont think its completely about killing cops, i think its partly a political statement, about rights and stuff, and not just i wanna fucking kill you...tho there is definetly some element of anger, hate and want to kill cops...w/e 12/10...great song
