about

Another cliché hardcore punk song about hating cops.. or is it?

I wrote this song in December last year based on a lot of views I've held for the vast majority of my life. I've always been distrustful of authority figures, especially the police, for as long as I can remember. For a long time I felt like everybody does. Until I realized they didn't.

I learned that beneath all the cop jokes and anger towards speeding tickets, people are not actually critical of the police as an institution. They never second guessed their role in society and more often than not simply accepted them as a integral part of it, as the executors of law and order, without which we wound descend into crime and violence.

As I grew older, I recognized the police for what they are - they are the guard dogs of the status quo, the foot soldiers of authoritarianism. Long gone are the times when cops helped old ladies across the street or helped get cats out of trees - and even that was only a charade to mask the dark underbelly of what they did in the shadows forever.

Cops beat protestors, evict families and make sure you do not forget your place in this world. Like they always have. And while yelling out ACAB is easy, it needs to be emphasized that this is not a personal attack, but an attack on the concept of police itself. Although from personal experience I can say that there are a lot of problematic and shit people in the police force.

The world is a mess right now and people are becoming more and more aware of the ideas briefly touched upon above. Educate yourself. Knowledge is true power.

So is this song a cliché? Yeah, probably. But one point stand strong - no one needs to be a cop. Period.

lyrics

WORDS:

Pišeš kazni kolesarjem, sikaš folku za gram trave.
Med šihtam na Petrol po sendvič in vplačat stave.
Jebeš samo nemočne, kriminalcev se bojiš.
Če pride do pizdarije pa se skriješ kakor miš.

Modri angel - si res ponosen na to kar si?
Modri angel - si z rok zvečer umiješ kri?

Kadar si v civilu, si pogumen, delaš zdrahe,
samo zato ker veš da te ne bojo spravl za zapahe.
Naslednji dan si zmačakn, bruhaš žolč zadej za gajbo.
Komi čakaš da mulca s skejtom prtisnu boš ob šajbo.

Ne zaupam ti.

Ne zaupam ti, kadar te vidim bom držal jezik zih za zobmi.

Pod uniformo je zapeta srajca rjava,
Na ramenih pa predsodkov polna glava.
Tvoje šefe boli kurac za ljudi,
ker vsi k niso vaši zanje so smeti.
Pozabil si kaj je narobe in kaj je prav,
zato na napačni strani zgodovine boš končal.
