Story Behind The Song
MgGee hears Fred singing as he drives up to the stairs of an old apartment
building. A drive by shooting launches the scene into a drive-by video shoot
with the band in the Gremlin through Watts, Boyle Heights & the Crenshaw district.
Fred defends himself in a shoot out with guitar licks as he ducks the gunfire.
It ends back at the apartment. Fred in trubadorial commentary. A typical "Cops"
scene. Ambulance, sirens, police radios, and a hysterical mother screaming
"My baby, my baby!"
Song Description

Lyrics
WIMPS WITH WEAPONS THEY'RE ALL AROUND
YOU CAN'T FIND THEM IN A CROWN UNTIL THEIR MOUTH SHOOTS ALOUD
WIMPS WITH WEAPONS DON'T HAVE THE NERVE
THEY WILL RUN WITHOUT A GUN BRAINLESS INSECURITY
YOU GO PREACHING EQUALITY WHILE MASQUERADING AND PARADING
YOU'RE JUST HIDING CONFIDE IN ME AS YOU TOSS US AND DOUBLE CROSS US
BETTER BELIEVE IT DON'T YOU KNOW WHAT YOU NEED
WHERE'S YOUR BLANKET YOUR TEDDY BEAR AND MOMMY
WIMPS WITH WEAPONS ROAMING THE STREET
LOOKING FOR SNEAKERS COVER UP YOUR FEET
WIMPS WITH WEAPONS A GANGSTER BURPEE
KILLING FOR NOTHING BUT A CHERRY SLURPEE
GO ON BLAMING SOCIETY FOR YOUR PROBLEMS AND POVERTY
CAN'T FIND ANSWERS LOOK IN THE MIRROR
IT'S SO DARK THOUGH THE WINDOWS ARE CLEAR
BETTER BELIEVE IT DON'T YOU KNOW WHAT YOU NEED
WHERE'S YOUR BLANKET YOUR TEDDY BEAR AND MOMMY
WIMPS WITH WEAPONS HIGHJACK YOUR CAR
SOUTH CENTRAL BEEMERS MAKE THEM A STAR
WIMPS WITH WEAPONS PAGE THEM FOR CRACK
YEAH THEY'LL DELIVER WITH KNIVES IN YOUR BACK
WIMPS WITH WEAPONS DON'T EVEN STARE
THEY'LL BEAT YOUR BRAINS OUT FOR WHAT YOU WEAR
WIMPS WITH WEAPONS PREY ON THE MEEK
NO FIGHTING BACK THE OLD AND THE WEAK
WIMPS WITH WEAPONS THEY'RE ALL AROUND
YOU CAN'T FIND THEM IN A CROWN UNTIL THEIR MOUTH SHOOTS ALOUD
