It's two o'clock in the morning
I'm tired and I'm depressed
I've had to little sleep this week
I could really do with some rest
Just as I wonder hwo far I gotta go
A car draws up beside me oh, so slow
Yes it's bored policemen and they won't leave me alone
Time for them ticks away so slow
Bored policemen won't let me go home
They ask you stupid questions
That demand only stupid replies
Some of them are truthful
But a lot of them are lies
It's best to be polite and don't cause a fuss
Or you may end up being done on SUS because
Bored policemen, they ain't easily amused
They don't need to be abused
Bored policemen will use any excuse
Live, live and let live, but you won't let me live this way
I said live, live and let live, but you won't let me live this way
You won't let me live this way
But don't you know
I realize you've got nothing to do
And I'm just a source of amusement to you
You sit there and waste my time while someone somewhere
Is committing a serious crime -
Why don't you let me go?
Why don't you let me go home?
It's three o'clock in the morning
I am tired, I could do with some rest
I've been stopped so many times this week
I'm beginning to feel just a little depressed
Just as I turn the last corner for home
A car draws up beside me oh, so slow
Yes it's more policemen, and they won't leave me alone
Time for them ticks away so slow
Bored policemen won't let me go home
I just wanna go home
Why don't you let me go home?
