911 Is A Joke Lyrics - Thank You - Duran Duran

(Public Enemy cover) 

Now I dialed nine one one a long time ago 

Don't you see how late they're reactin' 

They only come and they come when they wanna 

So get the morgue truck and bag the goner 

They don't care 'cause they get paid anyway 

They treat you like an ace that can't be betrayed 

I know you stumble with no use people 

If your life is on the line then you're dead today

Late comings with the late comin' stretcher 

That's a body bag in disguise 

y'all I'll betcha 

I call 'em body snatchers 

quick they come to fetch you 

with an autopsy ambulance 

just to dissect ya 

They are the kings 'cos they swing amputation 

Lose your arms your legs to them it's compilation 

I can prove it to you watch the rotation 

It all adds up to a funky situation 

So get up get get get down 

911 is a joke in yo town 

Get up get get get down 

Late 911 wears the late crown 

911 is a joke (Repeat)

Everyday they don't never come correct 

You can ask my man right here 

with the broken neck 

He's a witness to the job never bein' done 

He would've been in full effect 911 

They the token to your life when it's croakin' 

They need to be in a pawn shop on a 

911 is a joke we don't want 'em 

I call a cab 'cause a cab will come quicker 

The doctors huddle up and call a flea flicker 

The reason that I say that 'cause they 

Flick you off like fleas 

They be laughin' at ya 

while you're crawlin' on our knees 

And to the strength so go the length 

Thinkin' you are first when you really are tenth 

You better wake up and smell the real flavor 

Cause 911 is a fake life saver 

Ow, ow 911 is a joke
