Third Eye Blind Lyrics
"Cop Vs. Phone Girl"

[Verse 1]
Shakara showed up to class and she pulled out her mobile phone
It's the one thing that she owns to keep her known
She's an orphan now she just moved to a foster home
That phone keeps her connected
She's gonna keep that shit protected
The teacher said 'Get out of the class'
'Come on can I stay'
And to his shame
He said the call's been made
I hear foot steps sounding eager
Of a cop that's about to beat her

[Pre-Chorus]
Now I am all...
[Chorus]
I am all for the good fight
And if the cops roll by
Throw a peace sign
Say hey baby have a good night
I am all for the good fight
And if the cops roll by
Let the colors go blind
Say hey the kids
Hey hey the kids are alright

[Verse 2]
Officer slam came and threw Shakara backwards against the wall
I mean he flipped her just like a rag doll and broke her arm
Tossed her across that room
Face down on the deck
He put his hands around a 16 year old girl's neck

[Pre-Chorus]
Now I am all...

[Chorus]
I am all for the good fight
And if the cops roll by
Throw a peace sign
Say hey baby have a good night
I am all for the good fight
And if the cops roll by
Let the colors go blind
Say hey the kids
Hey hey the kids are alright
All the kids are alright
All the kids are alright

[Bridge]
It's a lot to take in...
I'll keep it simple, here

[Verse 3]
And on the classroom floor...
There's a little blood spatter
Why's it so hard to say Black Lives Matter
Doesn't mean that you're anti-white
Take it from me
I'm super fucking white
And on the tele
Hey that's Niya Kenny
On the Kelly File
Saying Fox News Corps is proud of you
You're the girl that stood back to a brutal attack
Come do a victory lap
Come get a clap on the back
Hey I fooled you
That never really happened
I mean come on
Could you imagine? (Ha, come on)
So I take it in my hands
I talk about this shit in my rock band
And I got black fans
And got fans with sun tans
And we all have the same demands

[Pre-Chorus]
Say I am all...

[Chorus]
I am all for the good fight
And if the cops roll by
Throw a peace sign
Say hey baby have a good night
I am all for the good fight
And if the cops roll by
Let the colors go blind
Say hey the kids
Hey hey the kids are alright (all the kids, and all the kids)
All the kids are alright
All the kids are alright
