Three Strikes And You're Out - The Foremen[00:00:00]
John Q Congress became a man[00:00:09]
In the mean streets of Happyburb[00:00:12]
Spent his allowance at Dairy Queen[00:00:16]
Jumped his Stingray off the curb[00:00:19]
Rose to fame in the Little League[00:00:24]
It was there without a doubt[00:00:26]
That he came to love the concept of[00:00:32]
Three Strikes and You're Out[00:00:36]
They sent John Q to Washington[00:00:45]
Just to toss around the old horsehide[00:00:48]
Then he threw 'em a curve or two[00:00:52]
Pretty soon he was high and inside[00:00:55]
So he drafted a crime bill[00:01:00]
It was John Q's finest clout[00:01:02]
And he gave it a name after the game[00:01:08]
Called it Three Strikes and You're Out[00:01:11]
You hit a serious foul or two[00:01:18]
And you're right back at the plate[00:01:20]
But swing and miss on the third time[00:01:25]
And your bills are paid by the state[00:01:28]
"Don't you worry 'bout healthcare "[00:01:32]
John Q stated feelin' stout [00:01:35]
"Cause everyone is covered under[00:01:41]
Three Strikes and You're Out "[00:01:45]
John Q knew it was workin'[00:01:51]
When they closed all the public schools[00:01:53]
All the neighborhood libraries [00:01:58]
All the playgrounds parks and pools[00:02:00]
And the kids went to prison camp[00:02:05]
Poundin' gravel and scrubbin' the grout[00:02:08]
Had the warden bind their hands behind 'em[00:02:13]
For Three Strikes and You're Out[00:02:17]
John Q Congress he robbed a bank[00:02:32]
With a pistol he had stole[00:02:35]
Hijacked a tour bus across state lines[00:02:39]
Didn't even pay the turnpike toll[00:02:42]
And the judge said "Strike Three John [00:02:46]
I oughta sentence you life in the dugout[00:02:49]
But I'm not inclined to put you in a bind[00:02:55]
'Cause you're not the kind the bill was designed[00:02:59]
To keep confined and out of mind[00:03:01]
And Justice is blind with one hand tied behind her[00:03:03]
For Three Strikes and You're Out[00:03:06]
