Awwwwwooo

Alright
There's been a murder
Down in Queens
A young couple gunned-down
At the scene
Shot in the head
Ambushed in a car
They should at stayed
Back in the bar

Cops won't protect you
Don't have a clue
C'mon now boys
Don't forget article number two

It's the constitution
The right to bare arms
Get yourself a gun now girl
'Cause it won't do you no harm

Son of a bitch
Son of Sam
Son of a bitch
There's blood on your hands

Ahhhhhhh

Always wears a hat
Never had a close-crop
A doctor with a black bag
And all through the cops

Brunettes in the Bronx
They're running scared
Down on the street
C'mon baby, baby
Cut-short that hair

Cops won't protect you
Don't have a clue
C'mon now boys
Don't forget article two

It's the Blues Explosion
The right to bare arms
Get yourself a gun now girl
'Cause baby it won't do you no harm

Son of a bitch
Son of Sam
Son of a bitch
There's blood on your hands
