The Laughing Policeman

"I Know a Fat Old Policeman" was a song sung by the Magic Mice and Colonel Fuzz as they killed Sergeant Appleby in the 1890s, to the tune of 'The Laughing Policemen'. (AUDIO: Encore of the Scorchies)

Original lyrics

 * I know a fat old police-man,
 * He's always on our street.
 * A fat and jolly red faced man,
 * He really is a treat.
 * He's too kind for a police-man.
 * He's never known to frown.
 * And everybody says he is the happiest man in town!


 * [Laughing Interlude]


 * He laughs upon point duty,
 * He laughs upon his beat.
 * He laughs at everybody when he's walking in the street.
 * He never can stop laughing,
 * He says he's never tried,
 * But once he did arrest a man and laughed until he died!


 * [Laughing Interlude]
