"D.S." (originally titled "T.S.") is a song by Michael Jackson released as the sixth track on the second disc of the HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book I album. Slash of Guns N’ Roses is featured on the electric guitar, marking the second studio collaboration between him and the King of Pop.

Background[]

The song was originally written as "T.S." clearly referring to the district attorney of Santa Barbara County, California, Tom Sneddon Jr. who led the investigation for the 1993 sexual abuse case. The title was eventually changed to "D.S." now referring to him as "Dom Sheldon", possibly due to a lawsuit he wanted to avoid.[1] However, in the recording itself, Michael is still clearly heard saying his name.

[Intro]
[Babies crying]
Aaow!
Gone, baby

[Verse 1]
They wanna get my ass dead or alive
You know he really tried to take me down by surprise
I bet he missioned with the CIA
He don't do half what he say

[Chorus]
Tom Sneddon is a cold man
Tom Sneddon is a cold man
Tom Sneddon is a cold man
Tom Sneddon is a cold man

[Verse 2]
He out shock in every single way
He stop at nothing just to get his political say
He think he hot 'cause he's BSDA
I bet he never had a social life anyway

You think he brother with the KKK?
I bet his mother never taught him right anyway
He want your vote just to remain DA
He don't do half what he say

[Chorus]
'Cause Tom Sneddon is a cold man (Gone, boy)
Tom Sneddon is a cold man (Gone, boy)
Tom Sneddon is a cold man, now
Tom Sneddon is a cold man

Thomas Sneddon is a cold man
Tom Sneddon is a cold man
Tom Sneddon is a cold man, now (Hee-hee!)

Hee-hee-hee!
Hoo-hoo!
Hoo-hoo!
Hoo-hoo!
Hee-hee!

[Bridge]
Does he send letters to the FBI?
Did he say to either do it or die?

[Chorus]
Thomas Sneddon is a cold man (Down boy)
Tom Sneddon is a cold man (Down boy)
Tom Sneddon is a cold man, now (Hee-hee!)
Tom Sneddon is a cold man

Thomas Sneddon is a cold man
Tom Sneddon is a cold man
Tom Sneddon is a cold man, now
Tom Sneddon is a cold man (He's just, he's just)

Cold man (He's just a piece of—)
Cold man (He's just a piece of—)

[Outro]

(Hoo!)
(Ah, you dog!)
(Down boy! Hoo!)

[Gunshot]
