Asian Dub Foundation - Operation Eagle Lie Lyrics
Lies!Damn lies and statisticsFitting up and stitching upDown at ballisticsThe back of the vanIt aint used for seatingJust check through the windowThe youth them get a beating.Meet p.c. p.r. the designer policemanPutting up a smokescreen with his multi-coloured truncheonShake a few bad apples off the long arm of the lawBut he knows and we know that its rotten to the core.Black man on a double yellow -Hes a criminalA racial attack -Investigation minimalYoull always find us on the end of a batonWhen the black meets the blueYou know whos getting spat onNow Im giving to you and I am driving into youThe truthNo number crunchingIts just your mind that were muggingAdf taking them on at i-spyWatching them watching usOperation eagle lie.Unity is strength and strength is unityIc1, ic2 and also ic3Altogether we can defend all of the communityOne people, all nationsFi reach their destinyBefore the devil man used to use the truncheonTo kill the black man is still his dream ambitionNow they have swat batons and cctvFor unusual people - just like you and meYoung sisters and brothers dying from heart attacksBut how can we breathe when the beast is on our backCs gas in your lungs, eyes and your mouthJust another police murder without a doubt.Cps is the piggys alibiNone of them are ever prepared to be the fall guyAdf taking them on at i-spyWhatching them watching usOperation eagle lie.
