Lyrics

Riot, riot Riot, riot He grew up in a different time and place With a lot more truth and a lot less hate Look around now, he doesn't know the place The rulers smile and say accept your fate Riot, riot It's time to energize Ooh, make for a new horizon The discontent is rising And the decibels are crying Make for a new horizon They said we were free to disagree (Riot, gotta start a riot) But they meant, "as long as you agree with me" (Riot, gotta start a riot) And if you don't, there's plenty of room in the cells tonight But as they drag him away, he's got one thing to say: "You can all go to hell tonight" Riot, riot It's time to energize Ooh, make for a new horizon The discontent is rising And the decibels are crying Make for a new horizon From the young to the grey They want you to obey Take their scraps, don't question Spot the lies but don't dare to mention The time has come for your detention They said we were free to disagree (Riot, gotta start a riot) But they meant, "as long as you agree with me" (Riot, gotta start a riot) And if you don't, there's plenty of room in the cells tonight But as they drag him away, he's got one thing to say: "You can all go to hell alright" Riot, riot It's time to energize Ooh, make for a new horizon The discontent is rising And the decibels are crying Make for a new horizon What we need What we need What we need is a riot tonight
