DWB
words and music

I pulled you over
‘cause you were speeding

Do you know how black you were going?

I had you clocked at fifty miles per black

In a forty-five blacks per hour zone


I'll be right black

When I've run your license

Just sit black and re-blax


Step out of the vehicle, son

Come with me

Gonna book you on a DWB


You put your hands up

So, naturally

I thought you had a gun up there

Hidden somewhere in mid-air


And you said, "Don't shoot"

You tried to flee

Which I took as an attack

And shot you five times in the back


I chased you down ‘cause

You had a pocket knife

I thought you might be joining the Swiss Army


Or stealing Skittles

Or passing twenties

Or otherwise compromising Western Civilization


Oh you can't breathe

No you can't breathe

You can't breathe, you can't breathe


That's what they all say

Come quietly

​I'll book you on a DOA-WB




​"DWB" is on the new double-album release THIS MACHINE: THE BEST OF ROY ZIMMERMAN, and on the album THE FAUCET'S ON FIRE!, available as a CD, as a digital download and as part of the Complete Collection.
