Subject: Lyr Add: Yob in hood (parody)
Whilst driving home this afternoon, the following popped into my mind, inspired by recent headlines in the UK. Tune "The Ballad of Robin Hood" (from the 50s TV series)
"Yob in hood, yob in hood, mooching down the street Yob in hood, yob in hood, Reeboks on his feet Bound to be bad, up to no good Yob in hood, yob in hood, yob in hood
Inciting paranoia, they're anonymous and mean In market square or in the shopping mall Causing endless trouble on the English urban scene The authorities want to ban them all
Yob in hood, yob in hood etc
In what might be their school uniform, or just their fashion clothes Their faces shielded from the wind and rain They represent quite everything the adults round them loathe And so they have to be restrained
