Firestone Station's very own singing deputies present...

    

THE HANDCUFF SONG

 

Sung to the tune of "I'm looking over

a four leaf clover"

 

I've got some handcuffs,

some brand new handcuffs,

that I haven't used before....

they're all chrome plated with

a double lock too..........

Oh how I wish... to click them

on you...

 

No need explaining the reason

for detaining, just why I'm

arresting you............

I've got some handcuffs, some

brand new handcuffs...that

I haven't used before.

BILL..........

My wife came across this the other day, read it and said "you should send this to Bill"    "Everyone already knows you have a screw loose!"

She came across a little song I wrote way back in '61.... My partners and I had a lot of fun with it through the years.  Imagine it's a quiet graveyard shift and the Watch Sgt. is almost ready to nod off.   Suddenly the back door of the station fly's open and two "Yahoo" * Deputies come through singing and dragging a completely bewildered Drunk Driver for booking.  At the end of the song both deputies do a little tap dance shuffle.    Most Sgt's (completely lacking in Music Talent, just yelled for us to book'em and get out!)    But the rest of the station was awake!  We performed this once in the field in making an arrest with half the neighborhood looking on.  Problems could have arisen but my partner (Galceran) broke out with the song.   Everybody thought it was unusual as they had never witnessed singing deputies.  Lot's of smiles and giggles.   One woman called it Police Brutality!  (Another critic)
