On the beat Pete Wiv me size ten feet I wander up and down the town For me that's a treat The beauties of the city and Everything's sweet For me that's a treat 'Cos I'm on the beat Pete Swing my truncheon merrily Try to teach the blind to see Move a lady for a seat Tourist find a sight to see Mingle with the crowd I wonder if they're proud Yes, that would be a treat 'Cos I'm on the beat Pete... beat Pete Hello Snowball, you still drunk ? Here have a smoke, anyone for lunch ? A printed person of last week's times Seen a lot of stars and moonshine (Spare you a dime ?)
