The city streets are burning
There's murder in your town
The boys in blue are after you and me
Another on goes down but that's alright

Another car goes up in flames
The riot act is read
Another night, another fight
Another body dead but that's alright

No one ever listens
And no one take the blame
Everybody soon forgets
The hate remains the same

Another night is over
A bright new day begins
And everybody soon forgets
Another no one wins but that's alright
