Citizen Cope Contact Lyrics

Contact Lyrics



You're walking down the street

You've got this white Chevy Lumina undercover

Checking you to see

They're checking your I.D.

'Cause it's a fine time

It's a fine time

It's a fine time

Say just to run a name

'Cause you look the same

As the dude with the rebel in his veins

But while you're checking me

You've got them crooked politicians

Eating up the treasury

And taking our cash

To spend on the prisons

While the youth they fast

Now I'm waiting on the day

When we can all bring

Like Martin Luther King

This is why I sing



[chorus:]

I want some contact contact

I want some contact contact

I want some contact contact

Contact contact

Only because my life depends on it
