Operation Eagle Lie lyrics
Song information
Artist: Asian Dub Foundation
Album: Rafi's Revenge
Lyrics
Written by: das, pandit, savale, tailor, zaman
Lies ! damn lies and statistics
Fitting up and stitching down at ballistics
The back of the van it ain't used for seating
Just check through the window the youth them get a beating
Meet p.c p.r the designer policeman
Putting up a smokescreen with his multi coloured truncheon
Shake a few bad apples off the long arm of the law
But he knows and we know that it's rotten to the core
Black man on a double yellow he's a criminal
A racial attack- investigation minimal
You'll always find us on the end of a baton
When the black meets the blue you know who's getting spat on
Now I'm giving to you and I'm driving into you
The truth- no number crunching- it's just your mind that we are mugging
Adf taking them on at i- spy
Watching them watching us operation eagle lie
Unity is strength and strength is unity
Ic1, ic2 and also ic3
All together we can defend the whole community
One people, all nations to reach their destiny
Before the devil man used to use the truncheon
To kill the black man is still his dream ambition
Now they have swat batons and cctv
For unusual people just like you and me
Young sisters and brothers dying from heart attacks
But how can we breath when the beast is on our back
Cs gas in your lungs, eyes and your mouth
Just another police murder without without a doubt
Cps is the piggies alibi
None of them ever prepared to be the fall guy
Adf taking them on at i- spy
Watching them watching us operation eagle lie
