Barbara Jackson said will you show some respect
To a desperate man will you show some respect
The Bishop said I am horrified
By these peoples actions I'm horrified
If you've ever been to Derby
You'd know the reason why
If you've ever been to Derby
You'd see the same as I
The superintendent of the local police
Said the crowd didn't really commit an offense
The security guard who did crowd control
Said there's horrible scenes these were horrible scenes
The acting chief of the mental health
Said we can't condem this strongly enough
And no one knows what was going on
In his head no one knows what was going on
If you've ever been to Derby
You'd know the reason why
If you've ever been to Derby
You'd see the same as I
And his best friend said ever since he was four
He smiled all the time he was so popular
His parents just couldn't say a thing
And the tributes were left by the school gate
If you've ever been to Derby
You'd know the reason why
If you've ever been to Derby
You'd have seen the same as I
