I got stopped at forest gate last year and sang this to the BTP, they gave me a producer so I sang this and they didn't take kindly to it

"Well,Wha wha wha what's your name then son?"
My name Smiley Culture

From seeing me mother
"What's the registration number of the car then?"
I can't remember
"What you got in the boot then son?"
A cassette recorder. Would you like to have a look?
"Shut your bloody mouth. We ask. You answer

You'll be on your way as soon as we get an answer
