The Langworthy...

ORGANISED CRIME.
Like the police spokesman said:
There's no such thing as organised
crime in Salford.
And a pub landlord robbed his own
safe and tied himself up.
He owed the good old boys
fifteen hundred pounds.
So, who collects the protection money
from the corner shops?
Who collects the protection money
from the pubs and clubs?
So, why are taxi's so expensive?
Why are buses ninety percent empty?
Like the police spokesman said:
There's no such thing as organised
crime in Salford.
