Everybody scatter and run
I was jossing with the baby in the bathroom
Hanging out the party with the coke spoon
Somebody yelled hey my heads on fire
Just cant take it no higher
Hey, dealers from the north and dealers from the south
Joints in the noses and joints in the mouth
But the friction in the kitchen only wanted out
On the night of the raid
Somebody yelled help put that thing on me
Thats one man I wouldnt want to be
If you said now Im going to make it sing
On the night of the raid
Well the boys hit the wall like bowling balls
Questioned them all like they had no balls
Snow hit their noses like an avalanche
On the night on the raid
Chorus (as inro except..)
