Public Enemy - 911 Is a Joke Lyrics

Lyrics 911 Is a Joke - Public Enemy



Hit me!
Somebody call an ambulance
There's not a minute to spare
Don't worry
There's not a minute to spare
Don't worry
Going, going, gone
I dialed 911 a long time ago
Don't you see how late they're reactin'
They only come and they come when they wanna
So get the morgue truck and embalm the goner
They don't care 'cause they stay paid anyway
They teach ya like an ace they can't be betrayed
I know you stumble with no use people
If your life is on the line then you're dead today
Late comers with the late comin' stretcher
That's a body bag in disguise y'all, I betcha
I call 'em body snatchers 'cause they come to fetch ya?
With an autopsy ambulance just to dissect ya
They are the kings 'cause they swing amputation
Lose your arms, your legs to their miscalculation
I can prove it to you watch the rotation
It all adds up to a funky situation
So get up, get, get, get down
911 is a joke in yo town
Get up, get, get, get down
Late 911 wears the late crown
Get up, get, get, get down
911 is a joke in yo town
Get up, get, get, get down
Late 911 wears the late crown
911 is a joke
911 is a joke
Everyday they don't never come correct
You can ask my man right here with the broken neck
He's a witness to the job never bein' done
He would've been in full effect
But late 911 was a joke 'cause they always jokin'
They the token to your life when it's croakin'
They need to be in a pawn shop on a
911 is a joke we don't want 'em
I call a cab 'cause a cab will come quicker
The doctors huddle up and call a flea flicker
The reason that I say that 'cause they
Flick you off like fleas
They be laughin' at ya while you're crawlin' on your knees
And to the strength so go the length
Thinkin' you are first when you really are tenth
You better wake up and smell the real flavor
Cause 911 is a fake life saver
So get up, get, get, get down
911 is a joke in yo town
Get up, get, get, get down
Late 911 wears the late crown
Get up, get, get, get down
911 is a joke in yo town
Get up, get, get, get down
Late 911 wears the late crown
How (911 is a joke) how, how (911 is a joke)
How, how (911 is a joke) how, how (911 is a joke)
So get up, get, get, get down
911 is a joke in yo town
Get up, get, get, get down
Late 911 wears the late crown
Get up, get, get, get down
911 is a joke in yo town
Get up, get, get, get down
Late 911 wears the late crown
(911 is a joke)
(911 is a joke)
(911 is a joke)
(911 is a joke)
