YIKES! This is the first song on this site to have me singing. Rapping, in fact. Be very afraid. This is a cover of a song by my pal Aaron Ackerson. Give him a visit.
Aaron Ackerson originally wrote this as a theme for a cable access show. That's all I can say.

Lyrics:[]
I’m a cop, you idiot!
Cook County Sheriff’s department, they’re on the case
Striving to keep the community safe
With the EMA and the DOC
and the In-Touch program keepin’ kids drug-free
Werd! I’ll hold ‘em up, yeah!
CCSD!
It’s the 2nd largest of its kind in the USA
Workin’ to protect you every day
Bringing criminals to justice is their campaign
From Richton Park to Brookfield to Des Plaines
Bad guys, they quake in fear
When the Cook County Sheriff police are here
So open your ears, or you’ll wish you had,
Cause we’re telling you what’s going on, behind the badge!

- The “I’m a cop, you idiot!” sample is from Pocket Arnold.
