So up rolls a riot van And sparks excitement in the boys But the policemen look annoyed Perhaps these are ones they should avoid
Got a chase last night From men with truncheons dressed in hats We didn't do that much wrong Still ran away though for the laugh Just for the laugh And please just stop talking Cause they won't find us if you do Oh those silly boys in blue Well they won't catch me and you
Have you been drinking, son You don't look old enough to me I'm sorry, officer Is there a certain age you're supposed to be Cause nobody told me
And up rolls the riot van And these lads just wind the coppers up They ask why they don't catch proper crooks They get their address and their names took But they couldn't care less
Thrown in the riot van, and all the coppers kicked him in, and there was no way he could win, just had to take it on the chin.
