Sorry to Hear You Got Shot 41 Times

Sorry to hear you have been shot 41 times
The police thought you were acting suspicious
Your criminal behavior crossed strict police lines
Your wallet appeared unduly malicious

To your anatomical parts wee added an extra 41 holes
You can say you were not using your head
The honorable police were fully extolled
You lost gray matter, but gained a whole lot of lead

A club on your head or a stick in your ribs
Is the typical New York style greeting
You’re are served up some lead with a side order of fibs
The dessert is a gratuitous Madison Garden style beating

The police fraternity swells with self-serving pride
You’ll find more pricks than on a tall Texas cactus
It takes a New York second to be sentenced and tried
Then you’re volunteered for their police target practice

So stay away from your garage, don’t invite a bullet barrage
The city is unrepentant and unforgiving
King’s English wasn’t spoken, so your femurs both got broken
At least in Panama, you might still be among the living

There’s no time for small talk, face down on the sidewalk
Take a Berlitz course on modern race relations
Dodge the cop in the blue suit, one false move and he will shoot
Hope your message doesn’t get distorted in the translation

Move to New York soon, find who’s buried in Grant’s Tomb
American culture is perpetually in love with the gun
With no more family laughter, hope you believe in the life-after
Your brief tenure in New York has been concluded and done

So sorry to hear you have been shot 41 times
You have every right to be extremely mad and pissed
It would have been 42, shot clean through and through
But unfortunately, that one shot just missed!
