Robbers on High Street

The song is originally found on an American Song-Poem Christmas album called Daddy, Is Santa Really Six Foot Four? On Bar None Records. It was written by Raymond Moberly and performed by Teri Summers and the Librettos. Song-poems were a pop culture phenomenon in the 50s, 60s and 70s where normal people would mail in their poems to "professional musicians" who would then set music to the poems for a fee, usually a few hundred dollars.

Armed robbers raid village shop
Three masked men have threatened staff at a shop in a village on the Essex/Suffolk border before escaping with a large sum of cash.
The men, armed with weapons including a sawn-off shotgun and wearing balaclavas, raided the Co-op in the High Street, Dedham, on Friday night.

Police said it was a terrifying experience for everybody in the shop.

The gang made off in an old-style white BMW car which they abandoned a short distance away in Mill Pond car park.

Anyone with information is asked to call Essex Police.
