Police and Thieves lyrics
by Lee “Scratch” Perry
[Chorus]
Police and thieves in the streets
Fighting the nation with their guns and ammunition
Police and thieves in the streets
Scaring the nation with their guns and ammunition
[Verse 1]
From Genesis to Revelations,
What the next generation will be, hear me
[Verse 2]
All the crimes committed, day by day
No-one tries to stop it in any way
All the peace makers turned war officers
Hear what I say
[Chorus]
Police and thieves in the streets
Fighting the nation with their guns and ammunition
Police and thieves in the streets
Scaring the nation with their guns and ammunition
[Verse 3]
All the crimes committed, day by day
No-one tries to stop it in any way
All the peace makers turned war officers
Hear when I say
[Outro]
Police and thieves, police, police and thieves
Police and thieves, police, police and thieves
