Third Eye Blind - Cop vs. Phone Girl lyrics
[Third Eye Blind - Cop vs. Phone Girl lyrics]
Shakara showed up to class
And she pulled out her mobile phone
It's the one thing that she
Owns to keep her known
She's an orphan now she just
Moved to a foster home
That phone keeps her connected
She's gonna keep that shit protected
The teacher said 'Get out of the class'
'Come on can I stay' and to his shame
He said the call's been made
I hear foot steps sounding eager
Of a cop that's about to beat her
Now I am all
I am all for the good fight
And if the cops roll by throw a peace sign
Say hey baby have a good night
I am all for the good fight
And if the cops roll by
Let the colors go blind say hey the kids
Hey hey the kids are alright
Officer slam came and threw
Shakara backwards against the wall
I mean he flipped her just like a rag doll
And broke her arm
Tossed her across that room
Face down on the deck
He put his hands around a
16 year old girl's neck
Now I am all
I am all for the good fight
And if the cops roll by throw a peace sign
Say hey baby have a good night
I am all for the good fight
And if the cops roll by
Let the colors go blind say hey the kids
Hey hey the kids are alright
All the kids are alright
All the kids are alright
It's a lot to take in
I'll keep it simple, here
And on the classroom floor
There's a little blood spatter
Why's it so hard to say Black Lives Matter
Doesn't mean that you're anti-white
Take it from me i'm super fucking white
And on the tele hey that's Niya Kenny
On the Kelly File
Saying Fox News Corps is proud of you
You're the girl that stood back
To a brutal attack come do a victory lap
Come get a clap on the back hey I fooled you
That never really happened
I mean come on
Could you imagine? (Ha, come on)
So I take it in my hands
I talk about this shit in my rock band
And I got black fans
And got fans with sun tans
And we all have the same demands
Say I am all
I am all for the good fight
And if the cops roll by throw a peace sign
Say hey baby have a good night
I am all for the good fight
And if the cops roll by
Let the colors go blind say hey the kids
Hey hey the kids are alright
(all the kids, and all the kids)
All the kids are alright
All the kids are alright
And she pulled out her mobile phone
It's the one thing that she
Owns to keep her known
She's an orphan now she just
Moved to a foster home
That phone keeps her connected
She's gonna keep that shit protected
The teacher said 'Get out of the class'
'Come on can I stay' and to his shame
He said the call's been made
I hear foot steps sounding eager
Of a cop that's about to beat her
Now I am all
I am all for the good fight
And if the cops roll by throw a peace sign
Say hey baby have a good night
I am all for the good fight
And if the cops roll by
Let the colors go blind say hey the kids
Hey hey the kids are alright
Officer slam came and threw
