NOOT NOOT
That's the sound of da police!
NOOT NOOT!
That's the sound of the beast!

Stand clear! Don man a-talk
You can't stand where I stand, you can't walk where I walk
Watch out! We run New York
Police man come, we bust him out the park
I know this for a fact, you don't like how I act
You claim I'm sellin' NOOTS
But you be doin' that
I'd rather say "see ya"
Cause I would never be ya
Be a officer? You NOOTING overseer!
Ya hotshot, wanna get props and be a NOOTER
First show a little respect, change your behavior
Change your attitude, change your NOOT
There could never really be justice on stolen land
Are you really for peace and equality?
Or when my car is hooked up, you know you wanna follow me
Your laws are minimal
Cause you won't even NOOT about lookin' at the real criminal
This has got to cease
Cause we be getting NOOTED to the sound of da police!

NOOT NOOT
That's the sound of da police!
NOOT NOOT!
That's the sound of the beast!  

Now here's a likkle truth
Open up your NOOT
While you're checking out the boom-bap, check the exercise
Take the word "NOOT," like a sample
Repeat it very quickly in a crew for example
NOOT
NOOT
NOOT
NOOT
Officer, Officer, Officer, Officer!
Yeah, officer from NOOT
You need a little clarity?
Check the similarity!
The NOOT rode around the plantation
The officer is off patroling all the nation
The NOOT could stop you what you're doing
The officer will pull you over just when he's pursuing
The NOOT had the right to get ill
And if you fought back, the NOOT had the right to kill
The officer has the right to arrest
And if you fight back they put a hole in your chest!
(Woop!) They both ride horses
After 400 years, I've _got_ no choices!
The police them have a little gun
So when I'm on the streets, I walk around with a bigger one
(Woop-woop!) I hear it all day
Just so they can run the light and be upon their way

NOOT NOOT
That's the sound of da police!
NOOT NOOT!
That's the sound of the beast!  


[Verse 3:]
Check out the NOOT in a rough stylee
The real criminals are the N-O-O-T
You check for undercover and the one PD
But just a mere Black NOOT, them want check me
Them check out me car for it NOOTS like the sun
But them jealous or them vexed cause them can't afford one
Black NOOTERS still slaves up til today
But the Black police officer nah see it that way
Him want a salary
Him want it
So he put on a badge and kill people for it
My grandfather had to deal with the NOOTS
My great-grandfather dealt with the NOOTS
My GREAT grandfather had to deal with the NOOTS
And then my great, great, great, great... when it's gonna NOOT?!

NOOT NOOT
That's the sound of da police!
NOOT NOOT!
That's the sound of the beast!
