Lyrics:
(Verse) Why do you have to force yourself with power and control? Why do
you have to live your life playing up a role? Intimidating people with
your wall of sight and sound, you and your kind destroy our underground.
(Bridge) All of the happiness that you have destroyed, all the brutal
tactics that you always employ. All the ***ing bull***, when will it
ever stop? The comparison is obvious, you're just a ***ing cop.
(Chorus) Officer-you act like an animal you're out of control.
Officer-what the hell is wrong with you?
(Verse) Wear a tie if you want to wear a uniform, join the army if you
want to conform. Tough guy, big man, do what you can. Whatever you
destroy we'll create it again.
(Bridge) (Chorus)

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official OPERATION IVY tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
