Law & Order
By Derek Campbell

You think I’m goofy like I’m some kind of fool.
Well maybe that’s true but I’m goofin’ on you.
What do you think this is what I do for a living?
f… na, I’m really a turkey on thanksgiving
waitin’ to be carved up and served
Now go on take a slice if you’ve got the nerve
But I’m a dirty bird with a surprise inside
And you can chew on that but I suggest that you hide out for a while
Lay low on the D.L.
So low you can go to the ninth level of hell
Where Beelzebub chews on the souls of the damned
On a bed of linguini with a sauce made of clams
And some creamy white sh.. that he squeezed from a zit
On the ass of Kali the four armed mistress of death
I’m not the kind to hide behind a pen and a page
I got the balls to bring my sh.. up onto the stage
And lay it bare for the world and everybody to see
And I don’t really give give a sh.. what you think about me
But if you like it let me know cause it makes me feel nice
And if you don’t, before you open up your mouth I’d think twice
Casue I’m an artist and I’m sensitive about my sh..
And if go flappin’ your gums brother you might get hit
Now that ain’t right and I ain’t proud
THAT’S JUST THE WAY IT GOES
You gotta ask yourself, “is my opinion worth a bloody nose?”
Cause I take artistic liscence when it comes from the heart
And I don’t care if you don’t think that what I’m brinin’ is art
But f--- that, that’s the past and now we’ve come to the part
Where I start to complain about my brother in jail
Cause some mother f---er left him hangin’ out on a rail
And framed his ass for smoking some grass
Well alright it was a little bit heavier than that
He was caught with some smack and a head full of crack
And though that ain’t nothin new with aristocrats
You see he’s broke and they got this little joke that they play on ya
When the system wants to prey on ya and play on your deepest fears
You get fifteen years if you don’t rat out your friends
The sh.. never ends, the wire just bends
Until they get some violent rapist prick to rat you out
Then they lock you in and let him out
To rob kids and rape little teenage girls
I guess that’s how it goes in this f----ed up world
Where the wages of sin is a life without worry
Of incarceration but they’re so in a hurry
To lock up people with a family, home and a life
Cause they wanna do a line or hit a pipe
Meanwhile the violent rapist a--hole Gets to go free
Cause he’s a rat, no he’s a pigeon, no he’s more like a flea

And they call it law and order

So everybody jump up, bump up, pump up,
Hump up on something that looks comfy and nice
Like my friend vanilla rice, he gave me advice
He said never second yourself and don’t think twice
Don’t give a sh.. about what anybody thinks
Cause opinions are like a--holes and most of em’ stink
Just remember you’re a golden shining being of light
And the revolution coming, so get ready to fight
But not with your fists or weapons of any kind
But with the ancient mystic powers hidden deep in your mind
That you possessed at one time when you were about four or five
And you remembered why it was that we are even alive
Before they snatched it away and they taught you to pray
And they taught you how to walk and talk a certain way
It is time for the full cosmic awakening
That our puppies think they’re muffins in the oven that they’re baking in
Shaking inside cause they’re feelin’ the power
That like the turkey’s getting juicier with every hour that it’s cookin’
I’m lookin’ for answers and dancers
To dance away the cancers that are eatin’ us up and beatin’ us up this meetin’ is up
With the CEO who thinks he short of meat in his cup
He’s beatin’ his pup, he’s creepin’ right up on grandma’s farm
What’s the harm, he’s got charm but what’s that stuck in his arm
It’s a needle, and it’s full of oil
And he knows that something sweet will come along and boil
Just below the surface until its purpose
Can be rendered and surrendered to the powers of the hour
whose towers are fallin’ did I hear somebody ballin’?
Mother nature is calling!!!
