The Laughing Policeman  (Billie Grey)
(Performed by Charles Penrose).

I know a fat old policeman
He's always on our street
A fat and jolly red-faced man
He really is a treat
He's too kind for a policeman
He's never known to frown
And everybody says he is
The happiest man in town.

A ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Ooo hoo hoo hoo ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Ooo hoo hoo hoo ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Ooo hoo hoo hoo ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.

He laughs upon point duty
He laughs upon his beat
He laughs at everybody
When he's walking in the street
He never can stop laughing
He says he's never tried
But once he did arrest a man
And laughed until he cried.

A ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Ooo... ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Ooo... hoo hoo ha ha ha ha ha ha
Ooo hoo hoo hoo ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.

His jolly face was wrinkled
And then he shut his eyes
He opened his great mouth
It was a wondrous size
He said "I must arrest you"
He didn't know what for
And then he started laughing
Until he cracked his jaw.

A ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Ooo... ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Ooo... ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ooo hoo ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.

So if you chance to meet him
When walking round the town
Just shake him by his fat old hand
And give him half a crown
His eyes will beam and sparkle
He'll gurgle with delight
And then you'll start him laughing
With all his blessed might

A ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Ooo... ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Ooo... hoo hoo ha ha ha ha ha ha
Ooo hoo hoo, oo hoo, ha ha ha ha ha ha.

Notes:

• Verse 1: "Policeman" should be pronounced "p'liceman" for the sake of the scansion.
• Verse 3: Nothing changes! I'm glad policemen still find wrongful arrest so amusing.
• Verse 4: And bribery & corruption, see West Midlands Police!

The CF Rap

The Leicester repeater, GB3CF, has the dubious distinction of being more accessible to people 3 counties away then the community it is there to serve (when the mast isn't lying on the ground - that is, we know nothing about this incident). Consequently, it gets a lot of abuse from the area of LPWS Headquarters. In the late 1980's an enterprising local DJ made his own tribute to CG3CF in the form of the CF Rap. The CF RAP is available from either of G8ASO's download sites.
