Video clip

Canteen culture coloring the view
From hendon to eltham, not following the clue
Corruption instruction, the life blood of the blue
The whole of the barrel is rotten and not just a few

Evidence buried with a secret handshake
Investigating officers on the double x take
Lost records and notes, excuses half baked
Screwed up a4 and this is no mistake

Officer xx, it's time to liaise
Let me introduce you to the brand new krays
No mention of the gangster 'informer' is the phrase
No communication in the 'in' and 'out' trays

Mi5, them building up combat 18?
Nazi turnouts and the bnp in between?
Running drugs for money for the loyalists?
Mcpherson, how come you missed the whole a this?

Defective constable, what you gonna say?
Suspending our belief and still on full pay
Chief condone is safe, what did you expect?
Who's up next? calling officer xx

Spin doctors and editors engaged in a pact
Information leaked out to cover up the facts
Daily slack mail onto a nice little earner
While another thousand cases still on the back burner

Zero tolerance for jack the home sec
Running for cover 'cause him know we're after him neck
Him a huff and him a puff inna de name a de law
When it come to the guilty him a man of straw

This shameful spectacle we can see clearly
Conspiracy in practice now not in theory
Heard all of de report and looked
Over the whole a de text
Time to step forward now officer xx

Defective constable, what you gonna say?
Suspending our belief and still on full pay
Chief condone is safe, what did you expect?
Who's up next? calling officer xx
