Police Retraining Song
Tune: Dream a Little Dream of Me
Songwriter: Nora Freeman
Gaggle: New York City Metro
Human & Civil Rights
Their hands are up
Do not shoot them
They can still breathe
Do not chokehold them
And on your beat whatever you do
Realize they’re as human as you
[bridge]
Jaywalking and selling loose ciggies
Are not capital crimes
Is murder okay cause they’re just black folks
Better change your minds
This belief
You must suspend
The nightmare of p’lice
Brutality must end
Accountability there must be
In the so-called land of the free
