Moving target on the street
Protecting every citizen
Prowl the darkness, fight for right
Facing danger with a grin

Love the sound when you smash the glass?
Hate those killjoy L.A. cops?
Violence like Clockwork Orange
You’re all TV punker lops!

He’s the man with the shattered badge
Got all the courage you wish you had
Just like the punks, they’re not all the same
What if you called the cops and no-one came?

Risk their lives most everyday
Sure they can get out of hand
Power image can go too far
If you were one you might understand

Hate them till you need their help
Somehow I just don’t understand
Why we have to raise a fist
It takes a big man to extend a hand

He’s the man with the shattered badge
Got all the courage you wish you had
Just like the punks, they’re not all the same
What if you called the cops and no-one came?
