lyrics

Guitar player tryin’ to make some extra chips and bones
Needs a place to settle with the few things that he owns
But he’s playin’ out of designated busker zones
And naturally, a crook like this can not be left alone

So the police man came to shut it down! Police man came to shut it down!
The police man came to shut it down! Police man came to shut the fucker down!

Somethin’ about a Friday night that tends to draw a crowd
I’ll admit it’s safe to say that things were getting’ loud
Homeboy in the corner lookin’ like he’s good and plowed
I got a funny feeling that this ain’t to be allowed

Peacefully assembling to exercise some rights
Got enough for heat and rent but not for food and lights
You can plead the first for now but can’t stay here all night
And if you do we’ve got some dogs that sure know how to bite

Stop and frisk pedestrians for nothing but their race
Beat a drunken crippled man to put him in his place
Pepper spray an unarmed crowd directly to the face
It’s the patriotic way to use a can of mace

And no one came to shut it down! No one came to shut it down!
And no one came to shut it down! No one came to shut the fucker down!
