| Look at that big rat, here hit him with this
|
| Uh-oh quiet, here comes that copper

|
| You better run Jack run Jack don’t stop yet
|
| There’s a patrol car, they’re searchin the area
|
| You think you’re scared now, it’s gonna get scarier

| Now which way Jack, cause you need a breather
|
| And a good lawyer, you won’t get either
|
| Up those stairs Jack, your sister’s building
|
| The cops will leave soon, so stay there till then
|
| But she’s not home so you can keep on knockin
|
| Take out a slim jim and pick the lock and

| Now you’re safe, can you believe those guys?
|
| Hunting you down with such hate in their eyes
|
| But now you can rest Jack, but oh what a mess black

|
| Peek out the window, to see who’s lurkin
|
| Twenty cop cars, hey this ain’t workin

| Someone saw you when you dipped inside they’re
|
| Comin up the stairs there’s no place to hide, yeah

| Good thing you didn’t ditch the gun like I said G
|
| You’d be a sittin duck, dead full of lead see
|
| They didn’t come to arrest and take you back
|
| They came to finish and diminish you Jack
|
| You shoulda never said that you would start tellin
|
| On the cops that was down with the drugs you was sellin
|
| So now it’s time to take the nine from your back
|
| Cause they’re kickin down the door, good luck Jack
