Down at Stockwell Station

The lookout called; He’s left his home. Under his coat he carries a bomb
To blow us all to kingdom come Down at Stockwell Station

They didn’t know from where he came. 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 that young man 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.
Gunshots loudly they rang out Down at Stockwell Station

Are you armed? With a gun. Can you shoot? Anyone.
Like that young man whose life was undone Down at Stockwell Station

Who could have guessed what lay 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 keep London safe, he sighs.
Meanwhile a mother softly cries Down at Stockwell Station

Are you armed? With a gun. Can you shoot? Anyone.
Like that young man whose life was undone Down at Stockwell Station
