ian hunter & the rant band - bow street runners lyrics
“london town is crumblin’ down” said the ‘penny post’ reporter
“something’s gotta be done ’bout the murderin’ scum, there ain’t no law and order”
woh+oh+oh
in the gas+lit alleys ‘n’ the gin+soaked bars, linin’ the streets of the ghetto
in the wh0rehouses on the open roads, death lurks in the shadows
stop thief, stop thief, half a million people are running scared
stop thief, stop thief, and all we need’s a hero
to stand up to the gangs, and i know such a man
blind beak ‘n’ the bow street runners
chasin’ them scallywags offa the street
blind beak ‘n’ the bow street runners
keepin’ the peace
keepin’ the peace
keepin’ the peace
keepin’ the peace
keepin’ the peace
keepin’ the peace
keepin’ the peace
keepin’ the peace
he can smell a rat a mile away, even if he can’t see then
sixty thieves roll in their graves, wrestling with their demons
(i said oh+oh+oh)
(i said oh+oh+oh)
never force the hand of a highwayman, he’ll put a bullet right through ya
relieve you of your valuables, and sell them right back to ya
stop thief, stop thief, stop in the name of the law
stop thief, stop thief, it’s just a matter of time
before we see you hanging off the triple tree, courtesy of
blind beak ‘n’ the bow street runners
chasin’ those neanderthals offa the street
blind beak ‘n’ the bow street runners
keepin’ the peace
keepin’ the peace
keepin’ the peace
keepin’ the peace
keepin’ the peace
keepin’ the peace
keepin’ the peace
feelin’ the heat
there’s a man outside with a horse and cart, the mob screams out for vengeance
a couple of pints at the hare ‘n’ hounds, then it’s off to the neck extension
stop thief, stop thief, they ain’t gonna let ya get away
stop thief, stop thief, you shoulda known better
than to tangle with the boys in blue, and the man they call
blind beak ‘n’ the bow street runners
chasin’ those criminals offa the street
blind beak ‘n’ the bow street runners
keepin’ the peace
keepin’ the peace
keepin’ the peace
keepin’ the peace
keepin’ the peace
keepin’ the peace
keepin’ the peace
keepin’ the peace…
