I saw a man get the beat down

Took his money and his wallet left him dead on the ground

I saw them gather celebrate the crime

Teaching us the laughter another lesson of mankind

I raise my hand, I've got another question:

"If I start a riot, will I get protection?

'Cause I'm the kid whose got a lot of problems

and if I throw a brick maybe the brick will go and solve them."



Oh.... yeah.... I wanna riot

Oh.... yeah.... I wanna riot



I'm boiling up the city's on heat

Red alert tension you know it's on the street

Code blue city of the dead

Sirens in the night with the lights bloody red

See how we do this (hell yeah) see how we ride

Throw a brick light the fuse dodge a bullet duck inside

It's a statistic hammered on my brain

Branded with a number another pawn in the game



Oh.... yeah.... I wanna riot

Oh.... yeah.... I wanna riot



Oi! Oi! Oi! Oi! Oi!

In front of me debauchery (hell yeah)

Crying in line and dying burning debris

My Face is burning, burning so quick

Like a candle at the end of its wick

Well, I turn the dial, I turn the channel

I turn into a monster fighting the eternal battle

I need some help and, there is no doubt

If I'm gonna go down I'm gonna take somebody out



Oh.... yeah.... I wanna riot

Oh.... yeah.... I wanna riot

Oh.... yeah.... I wanna riot

Oh.... yeah.... I wanna riot

Riot!
