Songs from "Dry Rot"

Songs from "Dry Rot"

Tune: "There's a Good Time Coming."

Police Defectives:
We haven't had a hold-up for at least a year
And all we want at present is a Red Top Beer.

Chorus.
There's a good crime coming
But it's ever so far away,
That's what we say to ourselves, we say,
Jolly good luck, hooray.

Chorus.
We are so badly overworked that Special Cops are made,
Thousands of batons all complete to whack the underpaid.

Chorus.
The criminals are eating off their heads in jail
Our only relaxation now is Red Top Ale.

Grand Chorus.

Rule Britannia, Britannia rule the swell!
Though you never, never, never did it well.
