I'd tear the badge off, I'd scratch off my name
But to my hubris I am merely enslaved
And I know your words will haunt me to my grave
"Please officer I am not who you say!"

You have no rights save for what I decide

Then he took a nervous step back
So I took him down
Just in time, I was gettin' bored
And he's tellin' me, tellin' me, tellin' me, tellin' me, tellin' me
Stop it, stop it, stop it, stop it, stop it
But I never do

Please forgive me
My whole life I'd forsake

I drown every meal in a whiskey neat
It's my only hope to hide my deceit
And my whole family thinks I'm incomplete
But I keep some secrets that must die with me

His voice
Ringing
Through my
Head
And I'm tellin' him, tellin' him, tellin' him, tellin' him, tellin' him
Stop it, stop it, stop it, stop it, stop it
But he never does
