Cop vs. Phone Girl - Third Eye Blind

Shakara showed up to class

And she pulled out her mobile phone

It’s the one thing that she owns to keep her known

She’s an orphan now she just moved to a foster home

That phone keeps her connected

She’s gonna keep that shit protected

The teacher said 'Get out of the class'

'Come on can I stay'

And to his shame

He said the call’s been made

I hear foot steps sounding eager

Of a cop that’s about to beat her

Now I am all…

I am all for the good fight

And if the cops roll by

Throw a peace sign

Say hey baby have a good night

I am all for the good fight

And if the cops roll by

Let the colors go blind

Say hey the kids

Hey hey the kids are alright

Officer slam came and threw

Shakara backwards against the wall

I mean he flipped her just like a rag doll

And broke her arm

Tossed her across that room

Face down on the deck

He put his hands around a 16 year old girl’s neck

Now I am all…

I am all for the good fight

And if the cops roll by

Throw a peace sign

Say hey baby have a good night

I am all for the good fight

And if the cops roll by

Let the colors go blind

Say hey the kids

Hey hey the kids are alright

All the kids are alright

All the kids are alright

It’s a lot to take in…

I’ll keep it simple, here

And on the classroom floor…

There’s a little blood spatter

Why’s it so hard to say Black Lives Matter

Doesn’t mean that you’re anti-white

Take it from me

I’m super fucking white

And on the tele

Hey that’s Niya Kenny

On the Kelly File

Saying Fox News Corps is proud of you

You’re the girl that stood back to a brutal attack

Come do a victory lap

Come get a clap on the back

Hey I fooled you

That never really happened

I mean come on

Could you imagine?

(Ha, come on)

So I take it in my hands

I talk about this shit in my rock band

And I got black fans

And got fans with sun tans

And we all have the same demands

Say I am all…

I am all for the good fight

And if the cops roll by

Throw a peace sign

Say hey baby have a good night

I am all for the good fight

And if the cops roll by

Let the colors go blind

Say hey the kids

Hey hey the kids are alright (all the kids, and all the kids)

All the kids are alright

All the kids are alright
