Am Dm Am Am
This morning I woke up in a curfew
Am Dm E E
Oh god, I was a prisoner too — yeah
Am Dm Am Am
Could not recognise the faces standing over me
Am Dm E E
They were all dressed in uniforms of brutality — eh
Am Dm Am Am
How many rivers do we have to cross
Am Dm E E
Before we can talk to the boss
Am Dm Am Am
All that we got seems lost
Am Dm E E
We must have really paid the cost (That’s why we gonna be)
Am Dm Am Am
Burnin’ and a-lootin’ tonight (Say we gonna burn and loot)
Am Dm Am Am
Burnin’ and a-lootin’ tonight (One more thing)
Chorus:
Am Dm Am Am
Burnin all pollution tonight (Oh yeah, yeah)
Am Dm Am Am
Burning all illusions tonight (Oh stop them)
Am Dm Am Am
Give me the food and let me grow
Am Dm E E
Let the roots man take a blow
Am Dm Am Am
All them drugs gonna make you slow now
Am Dm E E
It’s not the music of the ghetto
Weeping and a-wailing tonight (Ooh can’t stop the tears)
Chorus: Weepin’ and a-wailin’ tonight (We’ve been suffering all these long, long years)
Weeping and a-wailing tonight
Give me the food and let me grow
Let the roots man take a blow
All them drugs gonna make you slow now
It’s not the music of the ghetto
We gonna be burnin’ and a-lootin’ tonight (To survive, yeah)
Burnin’ and a-lootin’ tonight (Save your babies lives)
Chorus: Burning all pollution tonight
Burning all illusions tonight
Burnin and lootin tonight
Burnin and lootin tonight
