26 cops Lyrics

Let me tell ya about a little town here in this world
It's got one police officer cop for every boy and girl
But they better serve you during the day and over protected night
We got 26 cops in Delavan, IL, population 25.
They got one for John the factory worker and one for my cousin Lou
They got one for my mom the school teacher, for my dad, they got two
They got one for the town psychologist who sits and wonders why
We got 26 cops in Delavan, IL, population 25.
We're walkin' down the poverty line and the streets all gone to hell
The library could fall at any time, the hardware store already fell
Well I wonder where all my money goes and why the taxes are so damn high
We got 26 cops in Delavan, IL, population 25.
Somethings are gonna have to change after I sing you this song
This town can't hold the both of us, one must be movin' on
Well you know I love you with all my heart but I can't take any more...

There's 26 cops in Delavan, IL, population 24.
