I want to somehow organize a thing where whenever the conductor comes on to say that if we feel unsafe or have any questions, NYPD is on the platform, everyone on the train shouts "I feel safer already!" at the same time.

↳ Song: "Da' Dip" by "MC Luscious"
I have a memory of this being played at my Catholic school dance. I remember we had a small blue JVC CD boom box. And we would Mike it up with the PA system in the church basement. The PA consisted of in ceiling speakers that were used for bingo. It was cranked to the point of considerable distortion.

It must have been around the year 2000. I was perhaps in 7th grade. Except I remember it being a male MC. I also remember the words being something along the lines of "put you hands on your hip, You dip I dip we dip". Am I imagining this?
