The arrests of spring
Arrestees on the carseats of spring
That springy backseat of the police car
Sitting on your cuffs in the police car
Chauffeured to free room and board!
When you get on board with the police car!
With the partners quietly talking
The green displays of the computers
And the friendly chatter of the radio
The roomy fulmination of the cruiser's engine
Steering wheel shifters all
On a quiet spring night
With my two black-suited friends
In the warm black dark
Cruising through the well-kept streets
To Beverly Hills jail
O.R. in the morning
An end to my drunkdriving!
