Four Firemen Lyrics - The Police

Four firemen scrambled aboard their engine 

and raced five miles, 

blue and amber lights flashing 

Emergency call from the army 

But a surprise... 

was waiting when they got there 

The bathroom of the sergeant's mess 

was covered with water (covered with water) 

Their orders were to mop it up 

and put it in order (put it in order)

The friends of the army fire brigade 

came out in sympathy 

We didn't join to mop the floors 

or right the IMP... 

[coughing] 

They still had to do their jobs 

and throw the book at you 

You can't believe it's true 

On questioned why they refused to do it, 

they each replied, 

"This is how I see it." 

The first one to answer was Henry 

"I could work." The others felt the same way 

They all agreed it wasn't fair 

We shouldn't be made to (shouldn't be made to) 

It really is the principle 

We should remain true to (should remain true to)

They fought through two world wars, you see, 

with hand and tooth and fist 

Now William said he'd never stand 

for treatment such as this... 

They still had to lose their jobs 

and now they've been suspended 

(The story isn't ended) The story isn't ended
