Babylon's Burning
Babylon's burning, you'll burn in the street
You'll burn in your houses, with anxiety
With anxiety, Babylon's burning, Babylon's burning
With anxiety, Babylon's burning, Babylon's burning
Babylon's burning, you'll burn in the street
You'll burn in the ghetto, with anxiety
With anxiety, Babylon's burning, Babylon's burning
With anxiety, Babylon's burning, Babylon's burning
Babylon's burning can't you see
Babylon is burning with anxiety
You'll burn at your work, you'll burn at your play,
This monster is smouldering, with ignorance and hate
And with anxiety Babylon's burning, Babylon's burning
Babylon's burning, Babylon's burning Babylon is burning
Babylon's burning, Babylon's burning Babylon is burning
Jah War
The air was thick with a smell of oppression the militants joined with angry position
The tension tight with the strain of repression young blood boiling hot with aggression
Jah War fighting fighting Jah War, too close frightening
The winds were blowing and stirring up reaction a storm broke out a militant action
Hot heads came in uniform thunder and lightning in a violent form
Jah War fighting fighting Jah War, too close frightening
The air was thick with a smell of oppression the militants joined with angry position
The tension tight with the strain of repression young blood boiling hot with aggression
Jah War fighting fighting Jah War, too close frightening
Fighting fighting Jah War too close frightening Jah War
Fighting fighting Jah War too close frightening Jah War
Clarence Baker no trouble maker said the truncheon came down knocked him to the ground
See the blood on the streets that day the blood and the madness see the blood on the streets that day
Fighting fighting Jah War fighting fighting Jah War
Fighting fighting Jah War fighting fighting Jah War
Staring At The Rude Boys
It's a very small world in the middle of a crowd
The room gets dark when the music gets loud
Treble cuts thru when the rhythm takes the bite
But there's no room to move because the floor is packed tight
A voice shouts loud "we'll never surrender!"
A voice in the crowd "never surrender!"
A head in the clouds, blind propaganda
"Never surrender, we'll never surrender!"
Staring at the Rude Boys, staring at the Rude Boys
Dancing with the Rude Boys, dancing with the Rude Boys
Staring at the Rude Boys, staring at the Rude Boys
The skins in the corner are staring at the bar
The Rude Boys are dancing to some heavy heavy ska
It's getting so hot people are dripping with sweat
The punks in the corner are speeding like a jet
A bunch of BM's march in on DM's and some standing there saluting the air
They wanna be pirates but the sea is not calm tattooed crossbones on their arms
The lights come alive in a blinding flash dancefloor clears as the victims clash
Everyone leaves when the heavies arrive someone hits the floor, someone takes a dive
In A Rut
I can't concentrate, I'm in a state I don't feel straight, I can't love or hate
I can't feel nothing, can't feel no sting only just learning, I ain't a king
You're in a rut, you gotta get out of it
You're in a rut, you gotta get out of it
Ain't no use, you ain't that sloose don't tie that noose, it's just abuse
Don't take that ride, it's suicide you cut your wrist, you tried and missed.
You're in a rut, you gotta get out of it
You're in a rut, you gotta get out of it
Something That I Said
OK, kick me in the head just because something that I said
You don't want to know the truth because you're wild and full of youth
Was it something that I said
Something that I said something in my head?
You ain't got no friends no more because you kicked them to the floor
Time will tell, and you will see that it's down to you, not me
Was it something that I said
Something that I said something in my head?
OK, now you're on your own your self-righteousness has grown
So get off your pedestal before you ain't got no friends no more
Was it something that I said
Something that I said something in my head?
Out Of Order
You better calm down, I said you better cool down
You're burning white hot, you're over the top
You're out for some action, some vital attraction
You're one of the boys, go play with your toys
You're out of order you're standing on the border
You're out of order you're standing on the border
You better calm down, I said you better cool down
You're burning white hot, you're over the top
Your life is in danger, you're still just a stranger
You're one of the boys, go play with your toys
You're out of order you're standing on the border
You're out of order you're standing on the border
