This is the full version of the Arctic Monkeys song Riot Van.Its up in different parts on youtube but this is the only full one.i put some pics up while the songs playing sorry for the poor quality.

Lyrics;

Up rolls a riot van
And sparks excitement in the boys
But the policemen look annoyed
Perhaps these are ones they should avoid

We got a chase last night
From men with truncheons, dressed in hats
We didn't do that much wrong, still ran away though
For the laugh, just for the laugh...

And please just stop talking
Cause they won't find us if you do
Oh those silly boys in blue
Well they won't catch me and you

"Have you been drinking son, you don't look old enough to me"
"I'm sorry officer, is there a certain age you're supposed to be? Cause nobody told me..."

And up rolls a riot van
And these lads just wind the coppers up
They ask why they don't catch proper crooks
They get their address and their names took
But they couldn't care less

Thrown in a riot van
All the coppers kicked him in
And there was no way he could win
Just had to take it on the chin...

Smoked a bong last night and stole somebody's telephone
He thinks it's all alright but they've left him on his own, on his own

And baby stop calling, over and over yeah
And gimme some funny cigarettes, and do what they told you

Pinched a car with one headlight and lost control the passengers were screaming
Made him shut his eyes right tight and think of yer and hope that he was dreaming

Then up rolled the riot van and called the fire brigade
but it was already too late
and there was no arrest to make
ohh!

But baby stop calling, over and over yeah
And gimme some funny cigarettes, and do what they told you .

[RBPDTWASJ2LCGH73]

Hey, um, I wanted to know, why are there so many versions of each of their songs online? Is it because of the demos distribution?

This particular one mixes the one I heard for the first time (the first part) and the one I already had on my hard drive (the second one).

They are all amazing, but some of them sound different and have low audio quality :S

Great video and great mix by the way.

Could you send me a link to download it or something?

Arctic Monkeys rock!

[juanmurillo12]

Fuck the police from Hereford!

[100timezcooler]

@jonners123456 idk maybe has something to do with the whole smoked a bong last night dilema?

[BollocksUtwat]

Demos are often very much different than final versions. Just listen to Oasis demos. You hear Noel sing all the songs Liam usually did and often it sounds cooler or just weirder (in a good way).

I think the album version was tighter, the story being told was clearer and focused and generally would make people chuckle more since its like a hooligan boys' night out with the coppers showing up to crash the party. This one... I dunno the demo is harder to understand though I like it too.

[RikJamezBich]

They rock, better than most any other band going for this type of sound nowadays.

[shelivere]

I didn't realize I had just the demo version until I saw the live video. Its funny because they are so different and the album version is so much lighter!
