| Bentley said to Craig «Let him have it Chris» |
| They still don’t know today just what he meant |
| By this |
| Craig fired the pistol, but was too young to swing |
| So the police took Bentley and the very next thing |
| Let him dangle |
| Let him dangle |
| Dodot dododododot dodot dot |
| Bentley had surrendered, he was under arrest |
| When he gave Chris Craig that fatal request |
| Craig shot Sidney Miles, he took Bentley’s word |
| The prosecution claimed as they charged them |
| With murder |
| Let him dangle |
| Let him dangle |
| Dodot dododododot dodot dot |
| They say Derek Bentley was easily led |
| Well what’s that to the woman that Sidney |
| Miles wed |
| Though guilty was the verdict, and Craig had |
| Shot him dead |
| The gallows were for Bentley and still she |
| Never said |
| Let him dangle |
| Let him dangle |
| Dodot dododododot dodot dot |
| Well it’s hard to imagine it’s the times that |
| Have changed |
| When there’s a murder in the kitchen that is |
| Brutal and strange |
| If killing anybody is a terrible crime |
| Why does this bloodthirsty chorus come round |
| From time to time |
| Let him dangle |
| Dodot dododododot dodot dot |
| Not many people thought that Bentley would |
| Hang |
| But the word never came, the phone never rang |
| Outside Wandsworth Prison there was horror |
| And hate |
| As the hangman shook Bentley’s hand to |
| Calculate his weight |
| Let him dangle |
| Let him dangle |
| Dodot dododododot dodot dot |
| Well it’s hard to imagine it’s the times that |
| Have changed |
| When there’s a murder in the kitchen that is |
| Brutal and strange |
| If killing anybody is a terrible crime |
| Why does this bloodthirsty chorus come round |
| From time to time |
| Let him dangle |
| Dodot dododododot dodot dot |
| From a welfare state to society murder |
| Bring «back the noose» is always heard |
| Whenever those swine are under attack |
| But it won’t make you even |
| It won’t bring him back |
| Let him dangle |
| Let him dangle |
| Dodot dododododot dodot dot |
| Let him dangle |
| Let him dangle |
| Dodot dododododot dodot dot |
| STRING HIM UP |
| (traducción) |
| Bentley le dijo a Craig «Déjalo tenerlo Chris» |
| Todavía no saben hoy lo que quiso decir |
| Por esto |
| Craig disparó la pistola, pero era demasiado joven para blandirla. |
| Así que la policía se llevó a Bentley y lo siguiente |
| déjalo colgar |
| déjalo colgar |
| dodot dododododot dodot punto |
| Bentley se había rendido, estaba bajo arresto |
| Cuando le dio a Chris Craig esa petición fatal |
| Craig le disparó a Sidney Miles, tomó la palabra de Bentley |
| La fiscalía alegó como les imputaron |
| con asesinato |
| déjalo colgar |
| déjalo colgar |
| dodot dododododot dodot punto |
| Dicen que Derek Bentley fue fácilmente guiado |
| Bueno, ¿qué le importa eso a la mujer que Sidney |
| Millas casadas |
| Aunque culpable fue el veredicto, y Craig había |
| Lo mataron a tiros |
| La horca era para Bentley y todavía ella |
| Nunca dicho |
| déjalo colgar |
| déjalo colgar |
| dodot dododododot dodot punto |
| Bueno, es difícil imaginar que son los tiempos que |
| Han cambiado |
| Cuando hay un asesinato en la cocina que es |
| Brutal y extraño |
| Si matar a alguien es un crimen terrible |
| ¿Por qué viene este coro sediento de sangre? |
| De vez en cuando |
| déjalo colgar |
| dodot dododododot dodot punto |
| No mucha gente pensó que Bentley |
| Colgar |
| Pero la palabra nunca llegó, el teléfono nunca sonó |
| Afuera de la prisión de Wandsworth hubo horror |
| y odio |
| Cuando el verdugo estrechó la mano de Bentley para |
| Calcula su peso |
| déjalo colgar |
| déjalo colgar |
| dodot dododododot dodot punto |
| Bueno, es difícil imaginar que son los tiempos que |
| Han cambiado |
| Cuando hay un asesinato en la cocina que es |
| Brutal y extraño |
| Si matar a alguien es un crimen terrible |
| ¿Por qué viene este coro sediento de sangre? |
| De vez en cuando |
| déjalo colgar |
| dodot dododododot dodot punto |
| Del estado de bienestar a la sociedad asesina |
| Traer «de vuelta la soga» siempre se escucha |
| Cada vez que esos cerdos están bajo ataque |
| Pero no te hará ni siquiera |
| No lo traerá de vuelta |
| déjalo colgar |
| déjalo colgar |
| dodot dododododot dodot punto |
| déjalo colgar |
| déjalo colgar |
| dodot dododododot dodot punto |
