Verse 1:
G-A
I wonder what it was
that made you this way

Maybe as a baby you
dropped your rattle

And it still rattles
you to this day
G#
You better practice your
evil looks in the mirror
G A
They don't work on me
Slowly crawling up
from the down low

The other cops still
call you Fatso
G A
Short fuse and
a top to blow
G#
Unhappy wife shitty
life hit the bottle
Chorus 1:

Why did you become a cop?
