Swing & A Miss was inspired by swing music, the Chips Ahoy theme, the Diablo Swing Orchestra, and disliking lawmen.
lyrics
You’re only there
when we need you not to be
Don’t say a word to the police
So unprepared
To keep danger off the streets
Trust the police, trust the police
You have the right to remain
Silent, don’t forget that
Authority is sacred
You have the right to remain
Silent don’t forget that
And strip their power naked
Intimidate
With chained hands and on your knees
(in the back seat)
Don’t say a word to the police
Castrate the badge
With your zippered lips and teeth
Trust the police, trust the police
Damn it feels good to be outside again
Damn it feels good to be outside again
You have the right to remain silent don’t forget that
Don’t say a word to the police
