House Arrest

Well there's gonna be a party gonna make some noise
Yeah we're invitin' all the girls - invitin' all the boys
There'll be dancin' on the tables dancin' on the chairs
Ya there'll be dancin' in the parkin' lots
And up and down the stairs - alright
Close the windows - lock the doors
Turn it up now - pack the floors
Cops are on the outside - landlord's on the phone
Quick turn out all the lights
Pretend there ain't nobody home!

It's a house arrest - everybody run
I gotta plead guilty havin' - too much fun
This is a house arrest - up against the wall
We can't stop rockin' justa havin' a ball - One and all

Won't you come around to my place
Don't cha know it's overdue
You gotta bring your little lady wear your dancin' shoes
Get a Yellow Taxi - take a limousine
You gotta get there - it's gonna be a scene
it's too late can't wait - get out while you can
It was fun while it lasted let's do it all again

It's a house arrest - everybody run
I gotta plead guilty havin' - too much fun
This is a house arrest - up against the wall
We can't stop rockin' justa havin' a ball
One and all

We bin wakin' up the neighbours
Bouncin' off the walls
Hangin' off the ceilings
We'll be dancin' in and out of the halls!

This is a house arrest everybody move
Gotta plead guilty gonna raise the roof
This is a house arrest...!

Well, the biggest Norwegian newspaper regarded this as an arrest, since they hadn't told us that they were coming and they brought me in. So the biggest Norwegian newspaper looked upon that as an arrest.

Under Arrest

The name on the list didnt fit the id.
Following clues.
You cant hide homicide.
They answer the phone, tell me theyre not at home.
Im doing my best to tell you what I know.
Meet me in an hour.
Ill be on the corner.
Ill have on a trenchcoat, naturally.
You cannot avoid me.
I can be annoying.
When you least expect it - answer the question now!
Why inspector?
Hes a fine detective.
Got his own perspective.
Hes a lie detector.
Oh heaven knows. backtracking clues or any news on the scene.
In the right mood, sticking to my routine.
In dark day and night Im like a machine.
It was someone he knew.
He let em in.
He got caught by a dirty doublecrosser capable of murder.
Hes gonna be uncovered finally.
Its a full investigation and Im very patient, working out the puzzle carefully.
You dont have to worry.
It could be scary.
Either hit me harry or a coronary.
Oh heaven knows.
The face and the name didnt fit the id.
The time and the place in evidence dont exist.
They wanna confess, and be blessed by the rope.
Hot on the scent finding only dead ends.
Now, the killers out there.
Thinks he got away clear.
But hes not so clever.
Hes going to the devil.
Im setting up a rumour.
Hes gonna walk into it, before he knows what happened.
Im gonna grab him - tell me.
Whyd ya do it?
Youre a pretty stupid jerk to try the heavy stuff.
You think your pretty tough.
Whoa, homicide.
Youre under arrest, youre under arrest.
Youre under arrest, youre under arrest.
Whyd ya do it?
Youre pretty stupid.
The heavy stuff.
Youre very tough.
Youre under arrest.

Inner-City Nights

Gangs of teenagers hanging about
the smell of dope in the air
girls scream and run around
every evening they are there.
Even when it rains they turn up
a shop doorway or bus stop will do
there to drink bottles of cider
and to smoke and sniff glue.
Nervous people peep out
at the sound of very loud noise
but the police won't come out
they can't arrest young girls or boys.
Bring back national service
says the elderly gentleman
as a drunken teenager
throws at him an empty beer can.
Adults long for peace and quiet
but the yobs just want to make noise
but they know they'll get away it
as police can't arrest young boys.
