Call The Police

(album: Shades Of A Blue Orphanage - 1972)

Uh
Betty was worried about the lover that she has married
And she didn't know what to do
He'd been hit by a hammer on the head and he lay dead
An' all her worst fears had come true

Call the police
Call the police
Call the police
Call the police

Johnny was a joker and a very heavy smoker
And he never ever broke the law
Thin Miss Lizzy was a-kept very busy
And sometimes very dizzy, we knew what for

Call the police
Call the police
Call the police
Call the police

And take 'em all away
Lock 'em up

Call the police
Call the police
Call the police
Call the police

Call the police
Call the police
Call the police
Call the police

Call the police
Call the police
Call the police
Call the police

Call the police
Call the police
Call the police
Call the police

Louie was a loner and a big time Al Capone-er
Doing all his dipping from the door
He knew a shady dealer who had done a dirty DJ
The sooner he could even the score

Call the police
Call the police
Call the police
Call the police

And lock 'em up
Help ya have a birthday, say
Take 'em all away
