                  D7+  C#m7  
Up rolled the riot van
    Bm7                                         D7+  C#m7  
And sparked excitement in the boys
    Bm7                                    D7+  C#m7  
But the policemen look annoyed
    Bm7                                                 D7+  C#m7  Bm7  
Perhaps these are ones they should avoid
A                                    C#m7                                 Bm7              E    E6    E  
They got a chase last night from men with truncheons dressed in hats
A                                        C#m7                                         Bm7  
They didn' t do that much wrong, still ran away though for the laugh
                         E    E6    E  
just for the laugh
                D7+     C#m7  
Please just stop talking
                          Bm7                    D7+  C#m7  
Because they won' t find us if you do
              Bm7                     D7+  C#m7  
Oh, those silly boys in blue
                Bm7                             D7+  C#m7  Bm7  
Well, they won' t catch me and you
A                                    C#m7                             Bm7         E    E6    E  
Have you been drinking son, you don&rsquo t look old enough to me
A                              C#m7                                    Bm7  
I&rsquo m sorry officer, is there a certain age you&rsquo re supposed to be?
         E    E6    E  
nobody told me
                  D7+  C#m7  
Up rolled the riot van
                Bm7                                  D7+  C#m7  
And these lads just wind the coppers up
      Bm7                                            D7+  C#m7  
Ask why they don' t catch proper crooks
         Bm7                                         D7+  C#m7  
Get their address and their names took
             D7+  
But they couldn' t care less

                  D7+  C#m7  
Thrown in the riot van
     Bm7                                      D7+  C#m7  
And all the coppers kicked him in
      Bm7                                     D7+  C#m7  
And there was no way he could win
        Bm7                                 D7+  C#m7  Bm7  
Just had to take it on the chin
