Lyrics Citizen Cope – The Newspaper
Text:
The newspaper got some more people killed here
The magazine watched them shoot em’ in the field there
The radio they turned another deaf ear
The institutions stole everything near
Segeant Manny’s workin’ on a lead
From his funky at the doubletree
Five cannon’s outside the door
Five badges and a labrador
Born to chase after that dollar bill
Not to race up that forgotten hill
They don’t want you but you’re still here
And God knows that’s a miracle
The newspaper got some more people killed here
The magazine watched them shoot em’ in the field here
The radio they turned another deaf ear
The institution stole everything near
They pulled them over on the interstate
In her apartment threw a stun grenade
Found the pistol put the house in flames
And that’s was happened in their world today
Born to chase after that dollar bill
Not to race up that forgotten hill
They don’t want you but you’re still here
God knows that’s a miracle
