about

The first release from "The Art of Patience" CRW is a testimony to the abuse of authority committed daily by the State of California.

lyrics

"How many times have you been outside & you get to your ride & you're violated?
The street sweepers equal dollar signs, trying to explain would take too much time.
You see a band on the Sunset Strip & you come out & shit & you've got a ticket?
You get the lesson but the fee is mine, all because you didn't wanna read 5 signs!!

They've got your name at the halls of justice better pay up soon before they tow your caw away.
The fuckin judge is an alcoholic cause I pour him his drinks down at the country club.
They claim it's safety but the state is broke, if they want quick cash they should've legalized it.
The lights yellow but the cameras are flashin so be ready for action when the mailman comes to your place.

The California Revenue Whores, are serving fines & settling scores.
Get out of line & you'll get a ticket, down on all fours my place or yours.
You do the crime & you pay the fine kid, and don't tell me you can't afford.
So cough it up, tell me to stick it, but you'll be crying when the judge wants more.

The California Revenue Whores, are serving fines & settling scores.
Get in their way & they'll take your payday, your knees are knocking & your legs are sore.
Step out of line into my design kid, we're getting paid like never before.
So cough it up, tell me to stick it, but you'll be crying when I give you a ticket."
