Lyrics
0:03And sparks excitement in the boys
0:07But the policemen look annoyed
0:11Perhaps these are ones they should avoid
0:20Got a chase last night
0:22From men with truncheons dressed in hats
0:29We didn't do that much wrong
0:32Still ran away though for the laugh
0:35Just for the laugh
0:37And please just stop talking
0:39Cause they won't find us if you do
0:44Oh those silly boys in blue
0:49Well they won't catch me and you
0:57Have you been drinking son
0:59You don't look old enough to me
1:06I'm sorry officer
1:08Is there a certain age you're supposed to be
1:12Cause nobody told me
1:14And up rolls the riot van
1:17And these lads just wind the coppers up
1:21They ask why they don't catch proper crooks
1:25They get their address and their names took
1:32But they couldn't care less
1:51Thrown in the riot van
1:54And all the coppers kicked him in
1:58And there was no way he could win
2:02Just had to take it on the chin
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
