This song is about one of the band's many encounters with the British police. Their frontman Biff Byford had explained: "We were stopped by the police on numerous occasions when we had this huge American car, and that's basically what it's about. It's a story about the police stopping us on London Bridge in London and it stuck in my head. So I wrote some lyrics about it when I got the opportunity."
According to guitarist Graham Oliver, adding to the story, the title track was inspired by an incident where the band was driving in Whitehall and was subsequently pulled over and searched by the security detail of then British prime minister, Margaret Thatcher.
