Funny Cardiff songs

Harry Roberts is our friend he kills coppers.

Circa 1966

A lot of people thought that was funny at the time

I'd put it a few years later - 1970/71?

\also around that time was
"Who's that twat in the big black hat?
Dixon, Dixon
Who's that twat in the big black hat,?
Dixon is his name
On the beat all daaayyy
On the wife all night
Gonna feck that twat in the big black hat
Dixon is his name.

You may well be right. I looked up the murders and they took place in 1966. Harry Roberts is still alive having spent 48 years inside for his part in the murder of 3 policemen

That chant may have kept going from 66 to at least 71.

That chant may have kept going from 66 to at least 71.

I remember it in the early 70s
