Where Do You Get Off!?

I'm gettin' off on this highway...
I take my exit, my way...

-Then, a sign made me stop
And, there just had to be a cop


Then, he got up and said:

"Where do you get off!?"

-I said: "Here...but, I'm all done..."
"So, take your hand off the gun"


He said: "It looks like 
You had fun with the three-one-one"

-Indecent exposure, so 
"Hands over your shoulders!"


Then, I said to the cop:

"Where do you get off!?"

-He said: "In the bed..."
"At home, all alone, and when the lights are off..."


Then, I said: "I've heard enough"
And, sure enough, I heard a cuff
This cop started to get rough, and said:

"You're gettin' off this highway..."
"I take you in...my way..."

"So, hop in the back 
Of this white Cadillac..."

-"Mind your head, now..."


We rode on for awhile
And, then I thought I seen him smile...

I said: "You musta missed my exit 
By at least a quarter mile!"


Then, he sped through a sign
Red sign said: 'STOP'

The cop said: "This isn't where you get off!"

-"Does a cell ring a bell?"


I then decide...to ditch this ride...

I hitched, and I hiked...till the cuffs weren't as tight
He bent to take a right, turned around, I'm outta sight...

Now, I'm busy hidin' out...
Under bridges, when I dare...


Where do I get off!?

-Pretty much anywhere...
