The cop grabbed his arm, he started acting erratic
This ain't funny, so don't ya dare laugh
He said, "I need bullets, hurry up, run!"
Then he made his move to an abandoned building
When laws were stern and justice stood
They did the job, money came with ease
So he let the lady go and he starts to run on
He ran by a tree, there he saw this sister
Sirens sounded, he seemed astounded
Rat-a-tat-tatted and all the cops scattered
Ran up the stairs up to the top floor
Before long the little boy got surrounded
He said, "Keep still, boy, no need for static"
He robbed another and another and a sista and her brotha
But little did he know the little boy was strapped?
The kid pulled out a gun, he said "Why ya hit me ?"
Knocked an old man down and swore he killed him
Dave the dope fiend shootin' dope
The dope fiend brought back a spanking shotgun
The cops shot the kid, I still hear him scream
Pointed at her head and he said the gun was full o' lead
But one couldn't stop, it's like he had a disease
Just another case 'bout the wrong path
He went outside but there was cops all over
Ran out of bullets and still had static
A shot for the head, he shot back but he missed her
The cop got scared, the kid, he starts to figure
Escaped alive though the car was battered
Who don't know the meaning of water nor soap
Tried to rob a man who was a duty undercover
So he decided, he'd head for the subway stations
Raced up the block doing 83
But she was coming and he made a left
There lived a lil' boy who was misled
Crashed into a tree near a university
"I'll do years, if I pull this trigger"
Cop radios it to another lady cop
Deep in his heart he knew he was wrong
So he cold dashed and ran around the block
By another little boy and this is what he said
Punched him in his belly and he gave him a slap
"Me and you tonight are gonna make some cash
Grabbed a pregnant lady, got out the automatic
Looked around good and from expectations
And people were behavin' like they ought too good
The barrel was set straight for the cop's kidney
He told the cops, "Back off or honey here's dead"
Robbin' old folks and makin' the dash"
He dropped the gun, so went the glory
And this is the way I must end this story
Opened up the door there, guess who he saw?
He was runnin' top speed till he was outta breath
Then he dipped into a car, a stolen Nova
He was only seventeen, in a madman's dream
