about

'I still remember that I wrote this song in a very drunken state in late March 2005, and it only took me one hour and 18 minutes to complete it. Later I changed some words in the lyrics, but only in the first two lines ’cause the English wasn’t all that. It is about a murderer dressed as a cop, and of course people in cars stop for people dressed as cops so it is clear what happens in the song, innit? Wrong Today! was done live about five times from probably August 6, 2005, till April 19, 2008.'

lyrics

I am dressed as a cop, then I will take over
And make you to stop, and then you pull over
My right hand goes down
To where I wear my gun

I walk up to your car while you're in it waiting
It's just a few yards, you're anticipating
Although I walk slow
I'll end up at your window

Chorus:
There's no reason no to trust me
So you don't bother asking my ID
But I did load my gun and I will use it too
And I kill your passenger and you

You put your carwindow down, and I'm at the other side
Then you ask with a frown what you didn't do right
But (And) then I say:
You can only do wrong today

Before you realize, I take my gun
Then you freeze to ice, and so does the other one
And that's the end
For you and your girlfriend

Chorus:
There seemed no reason no to trust me
So you didn't bother asking my ID
Well, I had gun and I will use it too
And it's all over for the both of you

Later I changed some words in the lyrics, but only in the first two lines ’cause the English wasn’t all that.
