The police hardly distinguished themselves at Stockwell - they shot an innocent man! And their behaviour afterwards was inexcusable.

The stakeout called; He's left his home
Under his coat he carries a bomb
To blow us all to Kingdome Come
Down at Stockwell Station

They couldn't verify the claim
They didn't even know his name
They hunted him down just the same
Down at Stockwell Station

Are you armed? With a gun
Can you shoot? Anyone
Like Jean Char-les whose life was undone
Down at Stockwell Station

Cressida Dick was in command
She held his future in her hand
He must be stopped! was her demand
Down at Stockwell Station

Nobody heard a warning shout
As two armed men began the rout
And loudly gunshots they rang out
Down at Stockwell Station

Who could have guessed what lie in store?
He hadn't broken any law
And yet he lay dead on the floor
Down at Stockwell Station

Sir Ian Blair hides behind his lies
We must make London safe; he sighs
Meanwhile a mother softly cries
Down at Stockwell Station

To the tune of The Keeper
