"Police Truck" is a song by the California punk band named the Dead Kennedys orginally released in 1980 as a B-side for the "Holiday In Cambodia" single and later released in 1987 on the compilation album Give Me Convenience or Give Me Death. The song is a satirical attack on the actions of oppressive police officers, and takes a first person view from the authorities themselves.
