LYRICS: When a felon's not engaged in his employment Or maturing his felonious little plans His capacity for innocent enjoyment Is just as great as any honest man's Our feelings we with difficulty smother When constabulary duty is to be done Taking one consideration with another A policeman's lot is not a happy one When constabulary duties to be done, to be done A policeman's lot is not a happy one When the enterprising burglar's not a-burgling When the cutthroat isn't occupied in crime He loves to hear the little brook a-gurgling And listen to the merry village chime When the coster's finished jumping on his mother He loves to lie a-basking in the sun Taking one consideration with another A policeman's lot is not a happy one When constabulary duty's to be done, to be done A policeman's lot is not a happy one. |
