911 is a joke

Now I dialed nine one one a long time ago
Don´t you see how late they reactin´
They only come, and they come when they wanna
Go get the morgue truck and embalm the goner
They don´t care ´cause they get paid anyway
They treat you like an ace that can´t be betrayed
I know you´s know and you no use people
If your life is on the line, then you´re dead today
Late comings with the late comin´ stretcher -
That´s a body bag in disguise - Y´all I´ll betcha
I call ´em body snatchers
Quick they come to fetch you -
With an autopsy ambulance just to dissect ya
They are the kings ´cos they swing amputation
Lose your arms your legs the famous compilation
I can prove it to you watch the rotation
It all adds up to a funky situation
Get up, get get get down
911 is a joke in yo town
Get up, get get get down
Late 911 wears the late crown
(chorus)
(Ow)
911 is a joke, 911 is a joke
Everyday they don´t never come correct
You can ask my man right here with the broken neck
He´s a witness to the job never bein´ done
He would´ve been in full effect in a 911
Was a joke because their always jokin´
They the token to your life when it´s croakin´
They need to be in a pawn shop on a 911 -
Is a joke we don´t want ´em
I call a cab ´cause a cab will come quicker
The doctors huddle up and call a flea flicker
The reason that I say that ´cause they
Flick you off like fleas
They be laughin´ at ya while you´re crawlin´ on our knees
And to the strength, so go the length
Thinkin´ you are first when you really are tenth
You better wake up and smell the real flavor
Cause 911 is a fake life saver
(chorus) (chorus)
Ow, 911 is a joke, 911 is a joke
(ow) 911 is a joke,
(yeah)911 is a joke,
911 is a joke, 911 is a joke.
(Get up, get get get down)
911 is a joke, 911 is a joke, 911 is a joke
(Get up, get get get down)
911 is a joke, 911 is a joke, 911 is a joke
(Get up, get get get down)
Ooooh, yeahh
Don´t you see how late they reactin´
They only come, and they come when they wanna
Go get the morgue truck and embalm the goner
They don´t care ´cause they get paid anyway
They treat you like an ace that can´t be betrayed
I know you´s know and you no use people
If your life is on the line, then you´re dead today
