"Freeze", said the man, cruisin' the beat"You get your hands up, spread your feet""Don't you move an inch", 
I heard him say"Or you'll be doin' time till the judgment day"
And he said:"Don't tell me no lies, give me alibi's""'cause if you cross my path you've been doing life"
It's a dirty lie
It's a shakedown -- and it's a nervous shakedown
A nervous shakedown -- another nervous shakedown"Take you dime" said the man, "you can make one call"
And get a one-way ticket to the 
County Hall
Well the judge looked high and 
I looked low
And when he smiled at me it was a one-man show
He said:"Two to five the jury decides""Double parole if you survive"
It's a dirty lie
It's a shakedown -- and it's a nervous shakedown
A nervous shakedown -- another nervous shakedown
Law is gonna get you this time 
And throw away the key
