Standing on the corner, swinging my chain
Along came a copper and he took my name
He put his dirty maulers on my long drape coat
So I whipped out my razor and I... slit his throat

Teddy boy boogie, boogedy boogedy boo
Teddy boy boogie, boogedy boogedy boo
Ah-ah-ah, Ooh-ooh-ooh
Teddy boy boogie, boogie boogedy boogedy boo

Well I'm a Teddy boy 'cause that's the life I choose
I wear a tweed jacket and a blue suede shoes
I smoke a big cigar and I dig the local hop
Saturday night to see my baby dancin' to the bop

One night I was out on a chicken run
A getting my kicks and a havin' some fun
A cop car came up a from behind
So I whipped out my razor and I... changed his mind
