No More Cops
MDC Lyrics

I dreamed last night No more cops
The singer had a dream in which there were no police officers.

It felt alright No more cops
The singer felt good in their dream world without police officers around.

No need to fight No more cops
Without police officers, there would be less conflict and less need for fighting.

'Cause no one needs to steal
The absence of police officers would mean that people wouldn't feel the need to steal from others due to economic hardship or other reasons.

Everyone gets a meal
In a world without police, everyone would be able to get enough to eat without fear of being punished or discriminated against.

If it was only real
The singer wishes that their dream world could actually exist.

We'd need no more cops
The presence of a police force would no longer be necessary in a world where everyone can get what they need and conflicts are minimal.

I dreamed last night no police
The artist's dream involved a world without any police presence.

An army-less world doomed to peace
Without the police, the world could be more peaceful without militarization or a culture of violence.

And now as all my dreaming stops
The artist's dream has ended and they are now awake in reality.

I see it clear, we need no more cops
The singer realizes that the world without police that they dreamed of could be a better reality.

No need to fear
In a world without police officers, people would be less afraid of being harassed or punished unfairly.

I'd want to cheer
The singer would feel happy in a world without police and the conflicts that often arise from their presence.

And I wish you were here
The singer wants others to share in their dream of a world without police officers or conflicts.

Before my slumber stops
The singer wishes they could stay asleep and continue dreaming instead of waking up to reality.

It seems to me
The artist has realized that their dream wasn't just a fanciful idea but is actually desirable.

That if we're really free
In a truly free society, there would be no need for a police force to maintain order by force.

We need no more cops
The singer reiterates that in a world without poverty, inequality, or violence, there would truly be no need for a police force.

No Holy War No more God
The singer envisions a world without religious divisions or wars, which often motivate police interventions in conflicts.

No more rent No more deeds
A world without economic inequalities like rent and property ownership could reduce the need for police interventions in financial disputes.

No more money No more greed
A world without money or the need for accumulation of wealth could create a society that doesn't have the same incentives for crime or financial exploitation.

No more hate No more fear
A world without these negative emotions could reduce the interpersonal conflicts that often lead to police interventions or conflicts.

No one unhappy No one sad
In a world without poverty, inequality, or discrimination, there would be less emotional pain and suffering that would require police intervention.

No one ripped off No one mad
A world without wealth inequalities, where everyone gets what they need, could reduce the incentives for theft, robbery or other forms of criminal behavior.

But I awake Here instead
The singer is disappointed to wake up in a world where their dreams of a police-free utopia are not yet realized.

I wish I had Stayed in bed
The singer would prefer staying in bed to facing the reality of our world's issues and the persistence of conflicts that require police interventions.

I'd stay asleep in the deep
The singer expresses a desire to stay in the dream world longer, rather than waking up to the often-difficult reality of life.

And in my thoughts I'd keep No more cops
The artist would prefer to keep the dream world without police officers in their mind as a form of escape from the realities of our world.

When life gets mean
The artist recognizes that life can be difficult and that people can be motivated to act unfairly or violently.

Share in the dream
The singer wants others to share in the idea of a world where conflicts and violence are minimal, and police officers are no longer necessary to maintain order or protect people from harm.

Until you scream - no more cops
The singer encourages others to express their desire for a world without police officers, and to do so loudly until it becomes an achievable reality.

I dreamed late last night
The artist had another dream in which there were no police officers.

No more cops

No more cops
