  • Caught by the fuzz
    Well I was, still on a buzz
    In the back of the van
    With my head in my hands
    Just like a bad dream
    I was only fifteen

    If only my brother could be here now
    He'd get me out, he'd sort me out alright
    I knew I should have stayed at home tonight

    Locked in the cell, feeling unwell
    I talked to a man
    He said it's better to tell
    Who sold you the blow
    Well it was no one I know

    If only you'd tell us we'd let you go
    We'll make it up for you, my son
    So tell us what you know
    We'll make you wish you'd stayed at home tonight

    Here comes my mum, well she
    She knows what I've done
    Just tell 'em the truth
    You know where it's from
    You've blackened our name
    Well you, you should be ashamed

    If only your father could see you now
    He'd breakdown and he'd throw you out for sure
    I never should have let you out tonight

    Tonight (tonight), tonight (tonight)
    Tonight (tonight), tonight (tonight)
    Tonight (tonight), tonight (tonight)
    Tonight (tonight), tonight Writer/s: Daniel Goffey, Gareth Coombes, Michael Quinn

  • Nils from Oslo, NorwayBlow is slang for cocaine (as it is often snorted), but Gaz was caught with a prescription drug, not cannabis. According to wikipedia at least.

  • Ralph from Newton, MaIsn't there a line:
    "Who sold you the blow?
    Well it was, no one I know"
    Is it marijuana or cocaine? Or did I misunderstand the lyric?
