    Okay, I have a confession to make. I've been playing guitar for over 13 years, been listening to metal since I was 12 and I NEVER heard Saxon at all until last night. Talk about a rookie mistake. These guys are phenomenal! Duly noted ikonxp, already confessed last night after hearing this great track.

  • @Maysticha

    I was listening to the music on the radio (*)
    I had a feeling that something's not right
    The music was loud, we could still hear the crowd
    From the gig that we played that night
    We pulled into a motorway restaurant
    Stopped awhile, fooled around
    But I still had a feeling that something's not right
    'Cause we're standing in a whole in the ground
    Stop, get out (**)
    We are the strong arm of the law
    Stop, get out
    We are the strong arm of the law
    Into the night came a blue flashing light
    A blast from the siren to make sure
    But it came to a stop behind the motorway cop
    Who'd been tailing us for more than an hour
    He pulled us out of the car on the side of the road
    He questioned us one at a time
    Where is the gear that we know that you use
    We said the only speed we use is on cars
    You should've seen the stupid smirk drop from his face
    It was a negative exercise
    The way that we dress and the things that we do
    They thought it was an easy bust
    (Repeat *)
    (Repeat **)

    Used to hear my brothers playing Saxon when they were having a bath back in the early 80s(they still have a bath now). Never really appreciated how good they were until I saw them play live at the Download festival. They were amazing live and should have been on the main stage, the crowd were going mental.

As a law-abiding cititzen, I naturally didn't own any illegal items. Even had a nice little chit-chat with those cops. They were nice guys and real friendly, not like those in the song. :)
