Lyrics
Let's see, now I'm gonna do a, ah, well now I'll go back to a, a blatant propaganda song. It's uh, an existential portrait of our law and order people, your local policeman. Meet the king of cowboys He rides a pale pony He fights the bad boys Brings them to their knees He patrols the highways from the air He keeps the country safe from long hair I am the masculine American man I kill therefore I am I don't like the black man For he does not know his place Take the back of my hand Or I'll mark you with my mace I'm as brave as any man can be I find my courage in chemistry I am the masculine Amеrican man I kill therefore I am I don't likе the students now They don't have no respect They don't like to work now I think I'll wring their necks They call me pig although I'm underpaid I'll show those faggots that I'm not afraid I am the masculine American man I kill therefore I am Farewell to the gangsters We don't need them anymore We've got the police force They're the ones who break the law He's got a gun and he's a hater Oh he shoots first, he shoots later I am the masculine American man I kill therefore I am (Tape from California!) I don't remember that one either
