[Verse 1]
Last night the kids sent London alight
Started out in Tottenham and the flames spread through the night
But they didn't burn the banks down, and they didn't fight the cops
They just burned down their own ends and robbed the shops
[Verse 2]
Most of us just stood and watched it burn
Just ordinary people, who are working hard to earn
Earning money for the weekend, and some peace to see their folks
And last night we watched it all go up in smoke
[Verse 3]
Make no mistake this ain't no bullshit insurrection
It's anger mixed with greed without a plan
But don't pretend that you're not part of the solution
You can't just keep your head down in the sand
[Chorus]
So fuck the cops, and fight the thieves
Step up, defend your own communities
[Verse 4]
And today don't expect Westminster to care
They pass the laws then hit the suburbs, where they breathe the cleaner air
In an atmosphere unsullied, by burning cars or by hate
To the post codes where there are no sink estates
