Suzie and Manny's Drive
Suzie and Manny drive down the road.
Suzie is light and Manny is dark.
But they don’t mind as their hands hold.
They make their way to the skate park
As they hear a siren bold.
Manny pulls over to remark
How his blood is running cold.
The cop came over like a shark.
Manny reached to grab ID
But the cop didn’t seem to see.
It pulled out its pistol gun
That caused cold death when metals run.
Suzie cried and held Manny’s hand
But Manny would never hold hers again.
