911 Is A Joke - Public Enemy

Now I dialed nine one one 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 bag the goner

They don’t care 'cause they get paid anyway

They treat you like an ace that 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 comings with the late comin' stretcher

That’s a body bag in disguise

y’all I’ll betcha

I call 'em body snatchers

quick they come to fetch you

with an autopsy ambulance

just to dissect ya

They are the kings 'cos they swing amputation

Lose your arms your legs to them it’s compilation

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

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 911

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 our 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

Ow, ow 911 is a joke
