1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Please help us policeman,help us please.
Don’t turn your back, now don’t you freeze.
My friend needs help, he’s gasping for air.
He’s just a young boy, he needs your care.

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 ‘Move back’ you say, that’s impossible to do.
Wer’e in trouble in here, you must see it too.
There’s people fighting for their lives in here.
Can’t you recognise panic, the chaos and fear.

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 We’re trapped in here, there’s now way out.
We need help fast, but there’s none about.
There are people dying, we’re at that stage.
Fans getting crushed and pinned to this cage.

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 Surely the people in charge must understand.
This grave situation has got well out of hand.
Fans have fallen over, can’t get to their feet.
We’re hemmed in all sides, this trap complete.

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 ‘Move back’ you shout,but that can’t be done.
We need a way out, it’s now too late for some.
There’s death all around here, so why the delay?
Yet ‘move back, move back’ is all you can say.
