Kick his head, smash his face & do a bunk with his brief case
  Shoplifting for a lark, walk on the grass in the park
  In the restaurant loads o' nosh, stuff yer face & leave no dosh
  We are skint but we're alright, a different burglary each night
    NO LITTLE BLUE LIGHT, THERE'S NOT A COPPER IN SIGHT NO MORE..
    [Chorus:]
  You can commit any crime you please
  YOU WON'T GET NICKED IN SUNDERLAND, THE COPPERS ARE SOFTIES
  They hide when there's a thief or rogue at large
  WHEN THEY GET HIT THEY RUN & TELL THE SARGE... A BUNCH O' FAIRIES
    Rob a bank, get some bread or be a pickpocket instead
  A torch a swag bag with a crow bar, gettaway in a stolen car
  Break in to the town hall, spray graffiti on the wall
  If you're drunk and disorderly, then Sunderland's the place to be
    YOU WON'T GET ME, DOWN WERSIDE CONTABULARY
    [Chorus]...
  [Guitar Bit]
    Run Buck naked in the street, there ain't a bobby on the beat
  Raid the local jewellery store, no one to stop you break the law
    THE BOBBY'S GET SORE, BUT THERE'S NO CONSTABLES ROUND HERE NO MORE
    [Chorus]
