🎶 People help the people
And if you're homesick, give me your hand and I'll hold it
People help the people
Nothing will drag you down
Oh, and if I had a brain, Oh, and if I had a brain
I'd be cold as a stone and rich as the fool
That turned all those good hearts away...🎶People Help The People - Birdy

I'm not even sure what "service" means in the current hellscape, but it's the theme for #JukeboxFridayNight, so I'll try this:
Parquet Courts, "Careers in Combat" (2012)
https://youtu.be/6nTp5DkxGeo"There are no more spots for park rangers
Because there are no more bears to save you from,
But there are still careers in combat, my son!" -
#JukeboxFridayNight is #ServingPeople
Education as a service, anyone?

I've met some pretty decent police officers in my time (as well as some utter arseholes). I'm not in the US, but this track seems more relevant to ICE these days 😥
Dead Kennedys - Police Truck

#JukeBoxFridayNight
#ServingPeopleThis song started out as a jingle for a Coca Cola advertisment. So may folks liked it and called into radio stations requesting the song, it was quickly put out as a single with the advertising words replaced so radio stations would play it.

Another pick for this week's #JukeboxFridayNight theme, #ServingPeople.
Mary Wells: The Doctor (live performance, Bitter End Show, 1968)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7QV3viaNHKAWritten by Wells and her husband, Cecil Womack, the song was a minor hit for her on the Jubilee label.

Parking wardens serve people too, not the ones they ticket but the rest of us who need a park.
Here are the Fab Four singing about one on their seminal Sergeant Pepper album. (Tbh the song is more about a proposed interpersonal relationship with said warden, but never mind.)

I'll close with the best song of exasperated dedication to a service job I can think of, from someone who did that job for a long time:
"Another backstage pass for you
Another tube of superglue
Another border to get throughDrivin' like a maniac
Drivin' way to hell and back
Another room, a case to pack
We are the road crew"Motörhead - We Are The Road Crew (live from "No Sleep 'Til Hammersmith"): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1FtVR7gdp5c
