"pig" as policeman

To coin a phrase, "Can I get a witness?!" The 'Sixties are the only
part of my life that I'd be willing to relive, still as unhip as I was
the first time around. Maybe it has to do with the fact that Paul and
I were both born in the 'Thirties. Another old song was too new for
the 'Sixties, but it captures some of the spirit of the earlier era:
MDo a little dance
Make a little love
Get down tonight! Get down tonight!

Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have
found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be
imposed upon them.
