911 Is A Joke Lyrics

    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 'em back the goner
    They don't care 'cause they stay 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 the famous compilation
    I can prove it to you watch the rotation
    It all adds up to a funky situation

    Get up, get get down
    911 is a joke in yo town
    Get up, get get down
    Late 911 wears the late crown

    (chorus)

    (ow)
    911 is a joke , 911 is a joke

    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
    Is a joke because their always jokin'
    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

    (chorus) (chorus)

    Ow, ow 911 is a joke
    911 is a joke,
    911 is a joke,
    911 is a joke, 911 is a joke.
    (get up, get get down)
    911 is a joke, 911 is a joke, 911 is a joke
    (get up, get get down)
    911 is a joke, 911 is a joke, 911 is a joke
    (get up, get get down)

    Ooooh, yeahh
