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 a 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
