"Call the cops!" 1)California electro-pop rockers Call The Cops have arrived just in time to be the wake up call we’ve all been waiting for. Put on your dancing shoes and come along as this band ushers in a hot and pulsating fresh sound for your backseat make out sessions and after-hour parties. Fans of Metro Station, Paramore, Fall Out Boy, and All Time Low, secure your ‘I knew them before they were famous’ bragging rights now! The debut EP, Motion Sickness, is just the beginning, as CTC are primed and ready to break down doors, set off alarms and win over audiences everywhere. Call the cops were signed to Myspace Records after winning a contest in 2009. Their debut album was released in 2010.
"Call the cops..." 2) Call the Cops…, formed in ‘04, is a class struggle punk rock band based out of Baltimore, Maryland.
Tess (vocals), Dan the Cannibal (vocals/harmonica), John (drums), Al (Bass)and Nick (guitar). Original cast of Tom, Dan, Al and Brian for the beginning conception and first two songs quickly changed with the addition of members from Enemy Ancestor and Brian dropping the guitar for Nick to pick up.
Disbanded as of '07 to pursue other projects including Perdition (NY), Sheltershock (MD), Sacri-fidelis (MD), and Drunk again (MD).
"Call the cops" 3) While being together during the same time as the 2) Call The Cops, this line up hailed from the Arizona deserts. The original line up was Jon(vocals), Shaun(guitar), Zach(of Coughing Up Blood and Get Destroyed, bass), and Dustin (drums). The first practice they had in Dustin's garage (in which the cops were called) then Shaun's dad found an empty office for them to practice in on Sundays at the Lexus dealership where he worked. After a few practices with Dustin he was replaced with Nik and they stopped practicing at the Lexus Dealership. Eventually they recorded numerous times and were scheduled to have a 7" put out on 625. After kicking Shaun out and not finding a replacement the band fell apart and the record was never released. However, almost two years after the band's demise four of their demo tracks appeared on the 625 "Trapped In A Scene" Comp.
Zach and Nik now play guitar and drums in Get Destoryed, Jon plays drums in Think Fast, and Shaun is still the biggest Ohio State fan you will ever meet in your entire life.
"Call the cops" 4) A 4-piece rotten raw drunk punk band based in Bologna, Italy. All Cops Are Bastards.

Call the Cops Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm useless and regretful and nowhere to go (nowhere to go)
I am lonely and and I notice stuff is nothing just to show it
Open your arms, here I come
It takes more to stick together
And I never meant to make you cry
Acting like you're perfect
Still all along, we lived a lie
And I know you knew, baby
That I know the lady's going out with other guys
Acting like you're perfect
Acting like you're worth it
All you ever did was pray for guys
And you think that he will call you back (call you back)
I'm tired and I'm reckless and I can't go home (can't go home)
I'm useless and regretful and nowhere to go (nowhere to go)
I am lonely and and I notice stuff is nothing just to show it
Open your arms, here I come
Can't believe they're still together
Even after all the times she cried
Acting like you're perfect
Acting like you're worth it
Seem like you're just a waste of time
And I know you knew, baby
That I know the lady's going out with other guys
Acting like you're perfect
Acting like you're worth it
All you ever did was pray for guys
And you think that he will call you back
I'm tired and I'm reckless and I can't go home (can't go home)
I'm useless and regretful and nowhere to go (nowhere to go)
I am lonely and and I notice stuff is nothing just to show it
Open your arms, here I come
You like greasy and disgusting is the way you go
Getting something outta nothing in the way we roll
(You don't make friends, you make enemies)
Kicking our words to the curb like a former song
Writing, dance, ghost tales just for fun
(You don't make friends, you make enemies)
'Cept for you
I can't believe
I can't believe
I'm seeing my life go down the drain
I can't believe
I can't believe
I'm tired and I'm reckless and I can't go home (can't go home)
I'm useless and regretful and nowhere to go (nowhere to go)
I am lonely and and I notice stuff is nothing just to show it
Open your arms, here I come
Open your arms, here I come
Here, I came
The song "Room 410" by Call the Cops appears to be about a person who is feeling lost and alone, and is reaching out to someone else for comfort. The lyrics suggest that the singer has made mistakes and is full of regret, as evidenced by lines like "I'm useless and regretful and nowhere to go." The use of repetition in the chorus, with the lines "I'm tired and I'm reckless and I can't go home / I'm useless and regretful and nowhere to go," creates a sense of desperation and hopelessness.
The second verse seems to be directed at a specific person, someone who may have been in a romantic relationship with the singer. This person is described as "acting like you're perfect / everything was worth it," which suggests that they may have been pretending or trying to hide their own flaws. The lines "All you ever did was pray for guys / and you think that he will call you back" reinforce this idea and suggest that the relationship wasn't a healthy one.
Despite the darker themes of the song, there is a sense of vulnerability and sincerity in the lyrics. The line "Open your arms, here I come" is an honest plea for connection and human contact, and the repetition of "Here, I came" at the end of the song suggests a desire for acceptance and understanding.
Line by Line Meaning
I'm tired and I'm reckless and I can't go home
I am exhausted and daring, but I have nowhere to return to
I'm useless and regretful and nowhere to go
I feel worthless and remorseful, yet I have no destination to reach
I am lonely and and I notice stuff is nothing just to show it
My solitude is apparent, and I realize that my actions are meaningless
Open your arms, here I come
I am seeking comfort and support from someone
It takes more to stick together
Maintaining a relationship requires more effort and commitment
And I never meant to make you cry
I did not intend to cause you pain
Acting like you're perfect
You are pretending to be faultless
Everything was worth it
Despite the challenges, it was all worth it
Still all along, we lived a lie
Our relationship was a facade from the start
And I know you knew, baby
I am aware that you were well-informed
That I know the lady's going out with other guys
I know that you are seeing other men
All you ever did was pray for guys
Your only goal was to attract men's attention
And you think that he will call you back
You assume that the man will return your call
Can't believe they're still together
I am surprised that they have not broken up yet
Even after all the times she cried
Despite her frequent tears
Seem like you're just a waste of time
You appear to be a mere time-waster
You like greasy and disgusting is the way you go
Your preference is for crude and unpleasant things
Getting something outta nothing in the way we roll
We can make something out of nothing with our approach
(You don't make friends, you make enemies)
Your behavior causes animosity, not friendship
Kicking our words to the curb like a former song
Dismissing our words like yesterday's music
Writing, dance, ghost tales just for fun
Creating stories, dances, and supernatural tales purely for enjoyment
'Cept for you
Except for you
I can't believe
I am astonished
I'm seeing my life go down the drain
My life is spiraling out of control
Here, I came
I have arrived
