    Cameras up on poles so high -
    Flock cams watchin' over me. Oh lord.
    No one's safe when ICE is nigh -
    Flock cams watchin' over me.

    All night, all day,

    I listen to (and support with $) the legal podcast Serious Trouble: https://www.serioustrouble.show/
    A while ago they gleefully reported on the acquittal of 'Sandwich Guy'
    Sean Dunn - tried for a misdemaenor after a different feisty grand jury refused to return a indictment. Dunn lost his job but became a meme. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trial_of_Sean_Dunn

    The Sandwich Police
    Lyrics: Gary McGath, Copyright 2025
    Tune: "Following the Leader" from Disney's "Peter Pan" (1st 2 lines only)

    A guy just threw a sandwich, a sandwich, a sandwich,
    A guy just threw a sandwich, a sandwich right at me.

    We'll send a cop to get him, to get him, to get him,
    We'll send a cop to get him, and hold him, you will see.

    Hey, Murphy, go arrest him, arrest him, arrest him.
    Hey, Murphy, go arrest him, and don't you let him flee.

    But he's armed with a sandwich, a sandwich, a sandwich,
    But he's armed with a sandwich, with lettuce, rye, and brie.

    We'll send a guy for backup, etc.
    Then safe you both will be.

    But he might throw a steak bomb, etc.
    Why can't you make it three?

    We'll arm the squad with mustard gas, etc.
    since trouble you foresee.

    But we must face a hero, etc.
    And terrified are we.

    What if he swings a bacon club, etc.
    To cause us injury?

    All right, then, we'll send twenty, etc.
    The toughest in D.C.

    Then we'll go and baguette him, etc.
    To save our dear country.
