Point the Finger Lyrics


[Verse 1]

Poor little Johnny didn't live to see sixteen

Gun made his lung collapse

Buried the body of his brother the next week

Cops shot him twice in the back

Wrong floor, kicked down the door

No questions asked

(Police mothafucka)

Eyes meet, both on their feet

They open fire before he can speak

[Chorus]

Wrong place, wrong time

Stay out the streets is what they mama said

Dead man, no crime

School boys, they never broke a law

Anywhere, any time

They shoot first and ask questions last

Could be yours, could be mine

And then they point the finger at you

(And then they point the finger at you)

[Verse 2]

Unarmed, it don't matter, you can get got

Your own home, it don't matter, you can get shot

They feel fear and start squeezing that gat

They shoot to kill, now you're flat on your back

Dead witness, no coincidence

Drug deal gone bad (Drug deal gone bad)

The fuckin' badge is the biggest gang

We've ever had

[Chorus]

Wrong place, wrong time

Dealer dead, no drugs, no cash

Dead man, no crime

Cops shot him, said he reached for a gun

Anywhere, any time

They shoot first and ask questions last

Could be yours, could be mine

And then they point the finger at you

[Bridge]

How many more innocent people and kids gotta get killed by these police, man?

And then it's always the victim's fault

This is some fuckin' bullshit

[Chorus]

Wrong place, wrong time

They shoot first and ask questions last

Dead man, no crime

And then they point the finger at you
