Burnin' Streets |
The sirens' risin' |
There’s a distant blues dance on a crowded street |
The temperature’s a-risin' |
Soon you’re gonna be runnin' down |
Those burnin' streets, come on |
The century that’s hardly on its feet |
And the late news breaks early |
Does the sun rise from the west or from the east? |
An' it takes every day to be survivin' in the city |
London is burnin'; |
don’t tell the Queen |
Somebody tried to speak garage and they burnt down Bethnal Green |
Piccadilly’s yearning, like a reggae beat |
Soon you’re gonna be runnin' down |
Those burnin' streets, come on |
And you’re waitin' for your flag to be unfurled |
And the late news breaks early |
So how should life be lived around the world? |
(If London is burnin') |
An' it takes every day to be survivin' in the city |
Ready to face that dawn with no pity, come on! |
Yeah, ah-come on (London is burnin') |
Yeah, ah-come on (London is burnin') |
(Soon you’re gonna be run down) |
(Soon you’re gonna be run down) |
Those burnin' streets, come on! |
Does the universal cop have a beat? |
And the late news breaks early |
Did you ever buy that bar on Lucky Street? |
An' it takes every day to be survivin' in the city |
Ready to face that dawn with no pity, come on! |
Yeah, ah-come on (London is burnin') |
Yeah, ah-come on (London is burnin') |
Too many guns in this damn town |
At the supermarket, you gotta duck down |
Baby flak jackets on the merry-go-round |
(London is burnin') |
There’s too many guns in this damn town |
(London is burnin') |
Baby flak jackets on the merry-go-round |
(London is burnin') |
Too many guns in this damn town |
(London is burnin') |
Baby flak jackets on the merry-go-round |
(London is burnin') |
