Blaze Foley
Officer Manley
[Verse 1]
Officer Manley, is that really your name?
Why do all you policemen look just the same?
With your big heavy pistols and your bullets galore
I bet that your feet are just as flat as the floor

[Verse 2]
You read us our rights, but you read em too fast
Officer Manley, won’t you please kiss my ass?
Officer Manley, Officer Manley
Get down on your knees

[Verse 3]
Well, ease it on back, ease it on back, we shouldn’t have tried
Came down to Austin, Texas, we was so fried
And the police’ll get you if you look strange at night
If you got somе kind of khakis and a polo, you’re alright

[Verse 4]
But we only had blue jеans, our eyes were red
Said they knew we was awful, all the good folks was in bed
But what do they know, what do they know?
They don’t know everything

[Verse 5]
No sheets on the bed, just a blanket of blue
If I was your mama, I’d run out on you
Did you learn it in Iraq or Afghanistan too?
Or did you learn it in college like the young police do?
[Verse 6]
You learned how to use handcuffs and time your own breaks
Free cups of coffee and free coffee cakes
From middle aged women that's already married
Middle aged women that's already married

[Verse 7]
But Officer Manley, is that really your name?
Why do all you policemen look just the same?
With your big heavy pistols and your bullets galore
I bet that your feet are just as flat as the floor

[Verse 8]
You read us our rights, but you read em too fast
Officer Manley, won’t you please kiss my ass?
Officer Manley, Officer Manley
Get down on your knees
