The British Police are the best in the world

I don't believe one of these stories I've heard

About pretty policemen in leather and jeans

Showing their leg through a split in the seams

Leering at people and leading them on

Then running them in when they start to respond

The press all ignore it, they don't want to see

except when the case is... a Tory MP

(click below for Tom's Homepage, please)

In the News of the Screws and the popular press

They plaster their pages with bingo and tits

Then add all the scandal and slander that fits

The women at Greenham they smeared and despised

They crucified Elton with sneering and lies

If it's paedophile teachers or lesbian nuns

If it's filth and it's fiction... it's all there in the Sun

Sing if you're glad to be gay

Sing if you're happy that way

That's brutal and fatal and slowly invades

The moral majority like it a lot

Cos it's the wages of sin and the Judgement of God

The medics are baffled and caught on the run

They say it's a nightmare has barely begun

While government spending is barely a joke

Cos saving our lives doesn't... win any votes

Sing if you're glad to be gay

Sing if you're happy that way

And sit back and watch as they cease all our books

And treat us like leopards and sinners and crooks

Just hope you don't get caught up in the raids

Or pick up a pig or a partner with aids

Lie to your workmates and lie t o your folks

Put down the clones and tell lesbian jokes

Forget the impression from everywhere else

While we still do a wonderful job oppressing ourselves

Sing if you're glad to be gay

Sing if you're happy that way
