Lyrics of Send in the boys

He had her down in the cellar
With a knife pointing at her throat
He wouldn't let her go
Oh, no, he wouldn't let her go

She kicked and screamed
Someone heard through the walls from next door
What's the crack? what's the score?
Next door neighbor gave a call, no one answered

So the boys are coming
The boys are coming for you

They'll take you on a holiday
Maybe to the seaside, maybe they'll just give you away
They'll drop you off and say goodbye

You're looking pretty dangerous
You're looking pretty dangerous tonight
And nobody knows just quite what you will do next

So the boys are coming
The boys are coming for you

Coppers came heavy handed
Closed the street and demanded us to stay at home today
Oh, you must stay at home today

Calm him down, reassure him
Leave the girl, this is stupid, hold your hands up
We'll get you through this, yeah, we'll get you through this

So the boys are coming
The boys are coming for you

They'll take you on a holiday
Maybe to the seaside, maybe they'll just give you away
They'll drop you off and say goodbye

You're looking pretty dangerous
You're looking pretty dangerous tonight
And nobody knows just quite what you will do next

So the boys are coming
The boys are coming for you
