This was inspired by an incident where Anndy Cairns and Fyfe Ewing were at a student party where there was a lot of drugs going around, and suddenly a huge man burst in and started beating the students up. When the police arrived, they just helped him. It turned out that he was the son of the landlord of the students' house, and the landlord had died earlier in the day, so the policeman was outraged that they were having a party and so burst in. Apparantly there was a great deal of shouting and intimidation involved. And this is the result. Most of the lyrics (all except the 'Look me in the eyes...' but and the 'Asshole's) are samples from the film Electra Glide In Blue. This has a very jazzy feel, kinda like Nomeansno and Minutemen, while there's one jazzy breakdown bit with a sax and a siren which sounds like something Public Enemy might have used back in the day.
Is this where I'm meant to badly type how I can relate to this song?
