La la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la

Oh I'm just a London Bobby
And I don't know why they sent me to the bush
With all the creepy crawlies that are creeping up me drawers
I could easy give the job the push

I used to walk me beat down at old Trafalgar Square
Piccadilly Circus and the Strand
But names like Penhalonga, Bulawayo, Rafingora
Are a little bit too much to understand

La la la la la la la la la la
La la la la a la la

Oh I'm just a London bobby
It's just for mad dogs and Englishmen
Me skin is going pink and it isn't from the drink
And me helmet doesn't stop the midday sun

I used to get me orders direct from Scotland Yard
And the tourists used to take me photograph
But now I'm just a nana standing at a polling booth
And all they do is look at me and laugh

La la la la la la la la la la
La la la la a la la

Oh I'm just a London Bobby
And fighting crime has always been me job
They took away me truncheon
And they sent me to a place
Where there's nothing left for anyone to rob

When I was just a lad, saw a poster on a wall
It said 'Join the force and have a better life'
Now they're sending me to Wankie
And they say it's just a town
But how do I explain that to me wife?

Oh I'm just a London Bobby
And I don't know why they sent me to the bush
With all the creepy crawlies that are creeping up me drawers
I could easy give the job the push

La la la la la la la la la la
La la la la a la la
