 Bass: (all  the way) x8,
 Gutiar And Bass:
 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
 You better practice  your
 evil looks in the mirror
 They don't work on me
 Slowly crawling up
 from the down low
 The other cops  still
 call you Fatso
 Short fuse and
 a top to blow
 Unhappy wife shitty
 life hit the bottle
 Your whole world
 dropped from under
you  Left you sorry
 excuses  Left you with
meaningless things  to prove
 Like why you became a cop?
 Why did you become a cop?
 Post Chorus: --  x3, --
 Wonder what it was
 that made you this way
Maybe  as a kid your
 toys were taken away
 It still toys with
 you to this day
 You better practice  your
 evil looks in the mirror
 They don't work on me
 Slowly crawling up
 from the down low
 The other cops  still
 call you Fatso
 Short fuse and
 a top to blow
 Unhappy wife shitty
 life hit the bottle
 Your whole world
 dropped from under
you  Left you sorry
 excuses  Left you with
meaningless things  to prove
 Like why you became a cop?
 Why did you become a cop?
 Shut the fuck up
 Interldue: ----
 After my court date
 I'll forget about you
 I'll tell my cell mate
 I'll forget about you
 After the jail break
 I'll forget about you
 After I'm through
 singing this song
 I'll forget about you
 I'll forget about you
