Up rolled the riot van
   Bm7                              Dmaj7 Dbm7
And sparked excitement in the boys
   Bm7                          Dmaj7 Dbm7
But the policemen look annoyed
   Bm7                                    Dmaj7 Dbm7 Bm7
Perhaps these are ones they should avoid


A                          Dbm7                        Bm7          E  E6  E
They got a chase last night from men with truncheons dressed in hats
A                             Dbm7                              Bm7
They didn't do that much wrong, still ran away though for the laugh
                   E  E6  E
just for the laugh


            Dmaj7   Dbm7
Please just stop talking
                    Bm7              Dmaj7 Dbm7
Because they won't find us if you do
           Bm7               Dmaj7 Dbm7
Oh, those silly boys in blue
            Bm7                     Dmaj7 Dbm7 Bm7
Well, they won't catch me and you


A                          Dbm7                     Bm7      E  E6  E
Have you been drinking son, you don’t look old enough to me
A                      Dbm7                          Bm7
I’m sorry officer, is there a certain age you’re supposed to be?
       E  E6  E
nobody told me


              Dmaj7 Dbm7
Up rolled the riot van
            Bm7                         Dmaj7 Dbm7
And these lads just wind the coppers up
     Bm7                                Dmaj7 Dbm7
Ask why they don't catch proper crooks
       Bm7                              Dmaj7 Dbm7
Get their address and their names took
          Dmaj7
But they couldn't care less


              Dmaj7 Dbm7
Thrown in the riot van
    Bm7                            Dmaj7 Dbm7
And all the coppers kicked him in
     Bm7                           Dmaj7 Dbm7
And there was no way he could win
      Bm7                        Dmaj7 Dbm7 Bm7
Just had to take it on the chin
