The Pretty Littles - FORCE

Shot by RC Stills in the beautiful Geelong region. Written with permission from the Walker family. From the album Force out Feb 28 2025. You wanna rely on all those stereotypes you like? Yeah well how about this one A jacked cop covered in tats with a crew cut Looking for an adrenaline rush Doesnt wanna be laughed out Wants to make a name for himself He wants his presence felt He's a bully on a power trip A coward on a footy trip If it doesn't come to him He’ll go find it Hes a polly on a losing streak A gamer with an audience And you wonder why the Mum’s are yelling “All cops are bastards” It's a big blue hug from the brotherhood While the black blood runs red Blokes with the power to hurt and the power to stop people hurting them An untimely end for the kid that he shot dead Four months down the track he’ll be working for the force again The Uluru Statement From the Heart Another attempt from the oppressed at a new start But we conquer and conquer again Until the new start is a big white road, a car park, a cop shop and a fucking Kmart Gold and soil and wealth for toil Ya left ya kettle on the boil A stick in the sand A badge on the heart A gun in the hand. He's a bully on a power trip A coward on a footy trip If it doesn't come to him He’ll go looking for it He's a polly on a losing streak A gamer with an audience And you wonder why the Dad’s are yelling “All Cops are Dogs” It's a big blue hug from the brotherhood While the black blood runs red Blokes with the power to hurt and the power to stop people hurting them An untimely grave for the kid he shot dead Four months down the track he’ll be working for the force again That’s another one for our Queen, It’s another one that shouldn’t have been And I'm not saying the kid was perfect A traumatised kid with a shortened circuit But you can't tell me he deserved this You can't tell me this couldn’t have been avoided You gotta gungho copper doesnt know what he’s serving You got a cold hearted killer and he’s still working He's a bully on a power trip A coward on a footy trip If it doesn't come to him He’ll go find for it He's a polly on a losing streak A gamer with an audience And you wonder why the Kid’s are yelling “Fuck the Police” It's a big blue hug from the brotherhood While the black blood runs red Blokes with the power to hurt and the power to stop people hurting them An untimely grave for the kid he shot dead Four months down the track he’ll be working for the force again Yeah the force The force for what? I must’ve forgot.
