Up rolled the 

     
riot van
            
And sparked ex

              
citment in the

    
 boys
              
But the police

            
men look annoy

  
ed
              
Perhaps these 

              
are ones they 

           
should avoid

 
  They got a c

hase last nigh

t
           
  from men wit

              
h truncheon's 

         
dressed in hat

  They didn’t 

do that much w

rong,
           
  still ran aw

              
ay though for 

     
the laugh,
              
  just for the

  
 laugh

“Please just stop talking
Because 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?…
 nobody told me”

Up rolled the riot van
And these lads just wind the coppers up
Ask why they don’t catch proper crooks
Get their address and their name’s took
But they couldn’t care less

He got 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
