Lyrics:

Do ya think the cops have too much power?
Do ya think they use excessive force?
Tell us was your life in danger?
Tell us did ya feel any remorse?
Are you part of an organized outcry?
Are you actin on your own?
Would you agree this case has
racial overtones?

The cameras are rolling
So bare your soul
For the record
I’m on a tight deadline
Say what’s on your mind
For the record

Roll tape
Zoom in tight
Gimme one good soundbite
For the record

How did it feel when you pulled the trigger?
Tell us, what went through your mind?
Can justice really be served here?
Will the punishment fit the crime?
Do you see a political future?
Do you think the judge will let you off?
The public wants some answers
Here’s your chance to talk!

[DIALOGUE]

The cameras are rolling
So bare your soul
For the record
I’m on a tight deadline
Say what’s on your mind
For the record
You’re wired for sound
And we’re writing it down
For the record
This is crack reporting
Tell your story
For the record

Make sure that it’s sensational
Highly confrontational
For the record
