The Police surge en Londres en 1977, año de crispación, delincuencia y paro en el Reino Unido, causas del malestar social que hizo a la juventud comenzar a adorar a cuatro chavales que gritaban, despotricaban contra la monarquía y bebían mucha cerveza (y se metían lo que no era cerveza), Los Sex Pistols. En pleno auge del movimiento punk, en el que el virtuosismo instrumental y las letras carentes de insultos y política estaban relegados a un segundo plano, eran las bandas realmente buenas las que salían adelante.
¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!

Play in the standard reggae-esque Police rhythm.
---------8<-------------8<--------------8<--------------------- On Any Other Day by The Police
AAAA Theres a house on my street, and it looks real neat. FF I'm the chap who lives in it. Theres a tree on the sidewalk, theres a car by the door. I'll go for a drive in it. And when the wombat (??) comes, he will find me gone. He'll look for a place to sit.
Chorus I: GCADG My wife has burned the scrambled eggs. CADG The dog's just bit my leg. CADG My teen-aged daughter ran away. CADA My fine young son has turned out gay.
Cut up my fingers in the door of my car. How could I do it? My wife is proud to tell me of her love affairs. How could she do this to me?
Chorus I
Chorus II: AGEB/AAGEB/A And it would be OK on any other day. X2
Throw down the morning papers, and spill my tea. I don't know whats wrong with me. The cups and plates are in a conspiracy. I'm covered in misery.
Chorus I Chorus II X4 (w/ Chipmunk-like voice: "Happy birthday dear daddy")
