Testo On the Beat Pete - Madness
Testo della canzone On the Beat Pete (Madness), tratta dall'album Absolutely Beyond Compare
Up I rush off to work
Hello Fred you look half dead
Said are you coming are you going?
I could never do a double shift
Ah, Fred get some bed, Fred
Hello Steve, long time no see
I like the stones still on the thieve?
Bet you ain't half seen some time
In your short-lived life of crime
Have you done the time?
I'm on the beat Pete with my size ten feet
I wander up and down town for me that's a treat
Look at the beauties of the city
Everything's sweet for me that's a treat 'cause I'm on the beat Pete
Swing my truncheon merrily try to teach the blind to see
Move a lady for a seat a tourist find a sight to see
Mingle with crowd I wonder if they're proud
That would be treat 'cause I'm on the beat Pete
Hello Snowball you still drunk?
Here have a smoke and one for lunch
A printed person of last week's Times
Seen a lot of stars and moon shine
Spare you a dime? Hahaha, hahaha
I'm on the beat Pete with my size ten feet
I wander up and down town for me that's a treat
Look at the beauties of the city
Everything's sweet for me that's a treat 'cause I'm on the beat Pete
Swing my truncheon merrily try to teach the blind to see
Move a lady for a seat a tourist find a sight to see
Mingle with crowd I wonder if they're proud
That would be treat 'cause I'm on the beat Pete
Hello Bun, been down the oven
What's the rate for a single person
Is it good? Is it sad?
You look unhappy it must be bad
Hello May, been a busy day?
All work and no time for play
Still it's the life you chose I suppose
Good luck to you come what may
Skippity do da day
I'm on the beat Pete with my size ten feet
I wander up and down town for me that's a treat
Look at the beauties of the city
Everything's sweet for me that's a treat 'cause I'm on the beat Pete
Swing my truncheon merrily try to teach the blind to see
Move a lady for a seat a tourist find a sight to see
Mingle with crowd I wonder if they're proud
That would be treat 'cause I'm on the beat Pete
Beat Pete
Beat Pete
Beat Pete
Beat Pete
Beat Pete
Beat Pete
Beat Pete
Beat Pete
