You know I been a victim, oh yeah …
You know not what I done
A victim, it's true, just like God's only son
It's got to be somebody else; I know it wasn't me
Jail would keep me off of the force and postpone my degree.

I said hey judge, I'm innocent
You got no case to make.
I know killed the guy but it was his mistake
You have to take my word of it, the other guy's not here
And let me have my pistol back
So I won't live in fear.

If you been a victim, come commiserate with me
And we'll assert our rights and form a Victimocracy
Roll that rock right off of me
Can't keep a victim down
Now I got the righteous indignation
and I'm standing on the moral high ground.
