Black and Blue - Soul Asylum

Protect and serve

Slice my nerve

Gotta make sure everybody’s gonna

Get what they deserve

I make my plea, down on my knees

Street cowboy with a badge that says

Can do what you please

Do what you please, do what you please

Rape me, take me

Shine your lights so I can’t see

Holsters, guns and uniform

Just don’t impress me

Blood stained streets

He looks pretty neat

Somebody’s cryin' for help

And he’s breaking up my party

Please stop breathing down my neck

Took away something that’s mine

I want you to give it back

You gotta give it back, now give it back

Walk across my face

With your shiny shoes

Bow down to the badge

And colors black and blue

Oh, the blue night, he rides tonight

A show of strength, a polished fight

Just take me home 'cuz I’m not alone

Just take me home, I’m not alone

Get ready, the squads breakin' down

But you misjudged power

Get your handcuffs ready

'Cuz we’re coming in numbers
