The rolls a [C#m] riot [Bm] van and sparks excitement in the [D] boys
[C#m] [Bm]
But the policemen look [D] annoyed
[C#m] [Bm] Perhaps these are ones they should [D] avoid
[C#m] [Bm]
[A] Got a chase last [C#m] night from men with [Bm] truncheons dressed in hats
[E]
[A] They didn't do that [C#m] much wrong, still ran away though
[Bm] For the laugh, just [E] for the laugh
And [D] please just [C#m] stop [Bm] talking, cause they won't find us if [D] you do
[C#m] [Bm] All those silly boys [D] in blue
[C#m]
[Bm] Well they won't catch me [D] and [C#m] you
[Bm]
[A] Have you been drinking [C#m] son?
You don't look old [Bm] enough to me
[E] [A]
I'm sorry officer, [C#m] is there a certain age you're [Bm] supposed to be?
Cause [E] nobody told me
And over [D] hauls the [C#m] riot van [Bm] and these lads just wind the coppers [D] up
[C#m] [Bm] They ask why they don't catch proper [D] crooks
[C#m] [Bm] They get their address and their [D] names [C#m] took
[Bm] But he couldn't [A] care less
