LYRICS | P'LEASE POLICE P'LEASE

P’lease police p’lease -
I haven’t done anything wrong, so p’lease leave me alone
P’lease police p’lease -
I haven’t done anything wrong, I’m just sitting here on my own

And the lights are un-necessary
And the shouting won’t get you anywhere
I can hear, you don’t need the light
I can see, there’s no need to shout
You see my baby is abroad
I felt a bit alone
I’ve decided to go for a walk
Sorry for not having a dog
Is that making me a public threat?
I swear I haven’t been drinking,
I swear I haven’t been drinking

P’lease police p’lease -
You see my baby is abroad, that’s why I’m on my own
Now p’lease, police p’lease -
Will you let me go home? Will you let me go home?

And if this is a wealthy neighbourhood
I didn’t know I could afford to live in one
Is that why you’re scared?
Did anyone complain?
I’ve just been taking a walk
Some fresh air, you know
C’mon lay off I told you
I haven’t been drinking,
I swear I haven’t been drinking

P’lease police p’lease -
I haven’t done anything wrong, so p’lease leave me alone
P’lease police p’lease - no-no-no-no-no!
you’ve got me completely wrong
I told you I haven’t been drinking

I’m just sitting here passing time on my own
‘Till my baby comes back home
You know my baby is abroad
I couldn’t sleep, I felt a bit bored
I thought I’d better go for a walk
It such a nice night
I was sweating; the room was too hot
But I told you I haven’t been drinking
As if your baby is never abroad
But I’m proud I haven’t been drinking
I swear I haven’t been drinking, drinking, drinking, drinking...

P’lease police p’lease -
I haven’t done anything wrong, why won’t you leave me alone
P’lease police p’lease - No! No! No! No! No!
You shouldn’t treat me like that
You still think I’m some kind of pervert or what?

I told you I haven’t been drinking
I’m Alright; it’s just my baby she’s abroad
You think I’m losing it? I must be losing it…
Have you ever been daydreaming so strongly that you almost flew?
Probably not…I’m just…
Missing my girl so much
But I swear I haven’t been drinking
I swear I haven’t been drinking
I swear I haven’t been drinking
I swear I haven’t been drinking
