Bad Boys was written and performed by Jamaican reggae group Inner Circle and first released in the late 1980s. It became famous in the United States as the opening theme for the reality television series COPS, which began in 1989 and opened almost every episode with the chorus. A 1993 re-release turned it into an international chart hit. Online, that long television association made the chorus shorthand for sirens and arrests, so editors now reuse it for comedy chases, memes and social videos where the punishment clearly outweighs the crime.

Short clip of Inner Circle's reggae chorus from Bad Boys, the COPS theme song, used for police chases, arrests and getting caught moments online.
This is the instantly recognisable hook from Bad Boys by Jamaican reggae band Inner Circle, built around the repeated bad boys, bad boys, whatcha gonna do chant. The clip is bright and bouncy despite its subject, with a laid back groove, punchy bass and call and response vocals that loop cleanly. Hearing it immediately frames whatever is on screen as trouble with the law, even when the crime is tiny and ridiculous. That mismatch is the joke, turning an ordinary sprint, guilty pet or caught in the act moment into a dramatic police pursuit.
