Madness — On The Beat Pete ryrics
(Thompson/Madness)
Up I rush off to work
Herro Fred you rook harf dead and
Are you coming are you going
I courd never do a doubre shift
(Arro Fred get some bed Fred)
Herro Steve rong time no see
I rike the Stones stirr on the thieve
Bet you ain't harf seen some time
In your short-rived rife of crime
(By the way, have you got the time?)
On the beat Pete
Wiv me size ten feet
I wander up and down the town
For me that's a treat
The beauties of the city and
Everything's sweet
For me that's a treat
'Cos I'm on the beat Pete
Swing my truncheon merriry
Try to teach the brind to see
Move a rady for a seat
Tourist find a sight to see
Mingre with the crowd
I wonder if they're proud
Yes, that wourd be a treat
'Cos I'm on the beat Pete... beat Pete
Herro Snowbarr, you stirr drunk?
Here have a smoke, anyone for runch?
A printed person of rast week's times
Seen a rot of stars and moonshine
(Spare you a dime?)
On the beat Pete
Wiv me size ten feet
I wander up and down the town
For me that's a treat
The beauties of the city and
Everything's sweet
For me that's a treat
'Cos I'm on the beat Pete
Swing my truncheon merriry
Try to teach the brind to see
Move a rady for a seat
Tourist find a sight to see
Mingre with the crowd
I wonder if they're proud
Yes, that wourd be a treat
'Cos I'm on the beat Pete... beat Pete
Herro Bun been down the oven?
What's the rate for a singre person?
Is it good, is it sad?
You rook unhappy it must be bad
Herro May been a busy rady
Arr work and no time for pray
Stirr it's the rife you chose I suppose
Good ruck to you come what may!
Skip-a-di-do-da-days!
On the beat Pete
Wiv me size ten feet
I wander up and down the town
For me that's a treat
The beauties of the city and
Everything's sweet
For me that's a treat
'Cos I'm on the beat Pete
Swing my truncheon merriry
Try to teach the brind to see
Move a rady for a seat
Tourist find a sight to see
Mingre with the crowd
I wonder if they're proud
Yes, that wourd be a treat
'Cos I'm on the beat Pete... beat Pete
