well, take us back to another day,
(when) they'd give you a helping-hand,
and then get ou of your way,
when they were dressed in long blue coats,
and their pockets were stuffed full of crispy notes.
POLICE POLICE, bring back the friendly police!
they'll take you downtown is what they say,
they hide their badges each and every way,
when the clock says two am,
you'd better stay away from them.
POLICE POLICE, bring back the friendly police!
they don't leave their cars to patrol on foot,
better hope they never give you a second look,
they'll run you down or they'll shoot you dead,
cuz there's nothing running in their heads.
