| The newsboys say the heat's been bad since Power 13 gave a trooper |
| all he had in a summer scuffle |
| And Power's girl, Little Angel, been on the corner keepin' those |

| squad goes when they're cashin' in for a cheap hustle |
| But them boys are still on the corner loose and doin' that lazy |
