When cops are taking care of business I can understand
But the L.A. story's gone way out of hand
Their acts of aggression
They say
They're justified but it seems an obsession has started from the inside
They're shooting anyone who even tries to run
They're shooting little kids with toy guns
Take it to a jury but they don't give a damn because the one who tells the truth is always the policeman

refrain:
Beat all the niggers
Beat whoever you see
Don't need a reason
L.A.P.D.

The city of L.A. feels like a prison with helicopters overhead and bullets whizzing by
Martial Law ain't no solution
Åolice brutality's just social pollution

Beat all the white trash
Beat whoever you see
Don't need a reason
L.A.P.D.

They say they're keeping the peace - but I'm not buying it because a billy club ain't much of a pacifier
"Protecting your freedom"
Not that's just a lie - It's an excuse for power that's more like an alibi
Law and order doesn't really matter when you're the one getting bruised and battered
You take it to a jury
they'll throw it in your face because justice in L.A. comes in a can of mace

refrain
L.A.P.D. (2x)
