Lyrics
English: Groovy, dude" / "Burn down the barber shop" / "I hate America" / Working class, family man / Got groceries in the sedan / Live is hard but can't complain / Just gotta take it, day to day / Working nine to five, to bring home the bacon / But sometimes it gets so frustrating / The dopers, the robbers and the freaks / Making it unsafe on the streets / So he's got his gun / He's got his badge / He's got his stick / To beat the thrash / All the low class dregs of society / A simple man, keeping the peace / Beat, beat, beat, kill, kill, kill / Stomp them all 'till they lose their will / Shoot first, and ask questions later / A gun is the greatest negotiator / You might also like / Left on Read / Then one day / All these degenerate hippie freaks / Start marching and spreading their pinko propaganda / On the streets / So beat, beat, beat, kill, kill, kill / Stomp them all 'till they lose their will / Shoot first, and ask questions later / A gun is the greatest negotiator / Beat, beat, beat, kill, kill, kill / Stomp them all 'till they lose their will / Shoot first, and ask questions later / A gun is the greatest negotiator / Beat, beat, beat, kill, kill, kill....
