Operation Eagle Lie |
| Lies! |
| Damn lies and statistics |
| Fitting up and stitching up Down at ballistics |
| The back of the van |
| It ain’t used for seating |
| Just check through the window |
| The youth them get a beating. |
| Meet P.C. |
| P.R. the designer policeman |
| Putting up a smokescreen with his multi-coloured truncheon |
| Shake a few bad apples off the long arm of the law |
| But he knows and we know that it’s rotten to the core. |
| Black man on a double yellow — |
| He’s a criminal |
| A racial attack — |
| Investigation minimal |
| You’ll always find us on the end of a baton |
| When the black meets the blue |
| You know who’s getting spat on Now I’m giving to you and I am driving into you |
| The truth |
| No number crunching |
| It’s just your mind that we’re mugging |
| ADF taking them on at I-SPY |
| Watching them watching us Operation Eagle Lie. |
| Unity is strength and strength is unity |
| IC1, IC2 and also IC3 |
| Altogether we can defend all of the community |
| One people, all nations |
| Fi reach their destiny |
| Before the Devil Man used to use the truncheon |
| To kill the Black Man is still his dream ambition |
| Now they have SWAT Batons and CCTV |
| For unusual people — just like you and me Young Sisters and Brothers dying from heart attacks |
| But how can we breathe when the Beast is on our back |
| CS gas in your lungs, eyes and your mouth |
| Just another police murder without a doubt. |
| CPS is the Piggy’s alibi |
| None of them are ever prepared to be the fall guy |
| ADF taking them on at I-Spy |
| Whatching them watching us Operation Eagle Lie. |
