Take a Whack on the U.S. Side |
Pedro wanted to move to East LA |
And he smuggled his friends across to the USA |
He ran a roadblock on the way |
Hit the gas and we started to flee |
He said 'Hey man, let’s lead the cops on a wild ride.' |
I said 'Hey man, let’s ditch the truck down a riverside.' |
Aight. |
You know? |
I mean is seemed like a pretty good idea at the time, you know |
'Pull over so we can beat you senseless.' |
Captain must’ve needed a vacation |
He bottles up his tensions and frustrations |
He took batting practice on our heads |
He must’ve got up on the wrong side of the bed |
I said, 'Ow man!' |
I took a whack on the backside, ya know? |
He said, 'Hey Chico, here’s a whack from the US side.' |
Then he pinned me down with his |
Boot b-boot boot b-boot boot |
His boot his boot his big black boot |
You know, with the heel on it and he ground it into my back and stuff. |
I said, 'Ow man ease up a little okay |
Don’t shoot, doo doo doo doo doo doo |
Don’t shoot, doo doo doo doo doo doo |
Don’t shoot, doo doo doo doo doo doo |
Don’t shoot, doo doo doo doo doo doo |
Don’t shoot, doo doo doo doo doo doo |
'Hey does this look like I’m resisting arrest to you? |
I mean let’s talk about |
it. |
'I mean how much more down on the ground do got to get, you know? |
Geez, I’m halfway to China now, man.' |
Yeah but then this really' Something |
really screwy happened. |
Check this out |
Pedro was making his break between the trees |
And I was taking a nightstick across the knees |
Hey, but they caught it all on video |
And now it’s gonna cost 'em a lot of dough, man |
I said, 'See? |
I got a whack on the US side.' |
I said, 'Hey Mr. Cameraman Get a shot of my good side, huh.' |
So that way I can sue, s-sue, s-sue |
Hey I’m gonna sue |
I’m gonna get a lot of money |
It is like I’m winning the lotto, you know |
Hey they should have learned from the last guy |
Rodney King! |
Rodney King! |
Rodney King, man! |
You know? |
'Hey, can’t we all just get along, you know? |
Is this too much to ask? |
'Ow man! |
Ease up a little bit, ok. |
Geez man! |
What, do they send you to school |
for that stuff man? |
'You know you should play for the Dodgers, man. |
They could use a guy with a |
swing like that |
'Hey, does anybody got Johnny Cochran’s phone number, man? |
Yeah, |
I’ll take Shapiro’s it don’t matter' |
