"Riot"Rioting-the unbeatable high Adrenalin shoots your nerves to the sky Everyone knows this town is gonna blow And it's all gonna blow right now:.Now you can smash all the windows that you want All you really need are some friends and a rock Throwing a brick never felt so damn good Smash more glass Scream with a laugh And wallow with the crowds Watch them kicking peoples' assBut you get to the place Where the real slavedrivers live It's walled off by the riot squad Aiming guns right at your head So you turn right around And play right into their hands And set your own neighbourhood Burning to the ground instead[Chorus] Riot-the unbeatable high Riot-shoots your nerves to the sky Riot-playing into their hands Tomorrow you're homeless Tonight it's a blastGet your kicks in quick They're callin' the national guard Now could be your only chance To torch a police carClimb the roof, kick the siren in And jump and yelp for joy Quickly-dive back in the crowd Slip away, now don't get caughtLet's loot the spiffy hi-fi store Grab as much as you can hold Pray your full arms don't fall off Here comes the owner with a gun[Chorus]The barricades spring up from nowhere Cops in helmets line the lines Shotguns prod into your bellies The trigger fingers want an excuse NowThe raging mob has lost its nerve There's more of us but who goes first No one dares to cross the line The cops know that they've wonIt's all over but not quite The pigs have just begun to fight They club your heads, kick your teeth Police can riot all that they please[Chorus]Tomorrow you're homeless Tonight it's a blast
