East The Police
« back
Couldnt tell at first, but she drove in quietly
Not knowing what to do, not knowing what to be
So I thought about a girl, I donno her name either
Said I'd give her love, said Id never leave her
He said, I'd like to talk to you, I heard you knew her well,
And I didnt have a whole lotta time,
But I sat down because there was so much to tell.
    Chorus:
    In the east the police, had a suspicious eye
    And in the west, all the rest had heard she was a spy
    They interrogated her with the bright light, she would not confess
    They said she would break, no one could stand the test.

So we wonder why the blue sky hit me in the eye
And a girl, a girl, and I don't know her name either
Said I'd giver her love said I'd never leave her, if I did
I would come back some day and find her
We'd be alone we'd be all just right hear
A girl a girl, she saw me get much higher
Didnt know but we'd burn like fire
And we did, but I didnt want to leave,
And I didnt wanna go because
    Chorus:
    In the east the police, had a suspicious eye
    And in the west, all the rest had heard she was a spy
    They interrogated her with the bright light, she would not confess
    They said she would break, no one could stand the test.

My arms are open,
But to begin I will end by saying
That the world you call your own
Is in your left hand tied up in string
And my arms are open
But to begin I will end by saying
That the world you call your own
Is in your left hand, and its tied up in string
And the world you call your own
Is only in your left hand, tied up in string
And the world, my arms are open

But to begin I ring around
The way that you taught me to be no longer myself
And thinking about all the people that you know
I dont seem to be lonely anymore

Cause he don't know where
He don't know where
He don't know where
He don't know where

Cause he don't know where
He dont know where [15x]

Take yourself to the pier
Stand where she stood
Take yourself to the pier
Stand where she stood
Take yourself to the pier
Stand where she stood
Take yourself to the pier
Stand where

So I went up to the police chiefs office
I said, where is she?
He said, I didn't know
I said, Thats bullshit, and you know it,
She's here somewhere, she's here somewhere
And he looks at me and says, I dont know you,
Why don't you get out of my life?
And I say, Mr. Police Chief,
Well why don't you, why don't you go and, go and, yea.
Why dont you go and, you know where you can go?
You know you can go, (you dont know where)
Why don't you just go and fuck yourself
To the rest fuck yourself,
To the rest fuck yourself and the rest of you all
Just go fuck yourself (I dont know this guy)
To the rest fuck yourself (I dont wanna go to jail)
To the rest fuck yourself (I dont wanna go to jail)
Fuck yourself

Mr. Police Chief
(I dont know you, he dont know where)
