The Violators - Summer of 81

Summer of 81 There’s blood on the street And the smell is so sweet ’Cos another blue bastard has gone down See the boots swarmimg round his head They’re gonna see him dead Nightstick in his hand He tried to rule this land That’s no way to make a country great It takes more, more than force You’ve got to give it a voice So it’s goodnight to one more fascist clown We’ve got a right, you can’t keep us quiet We’ve got a riot, we’ve got a riot This is our answer to your law! Don’t shed no tears for him His life was lived in sin No one has the right to order you Don’t be told what life is about Brixton riot riot Toxteth riot riot Bristol riot riot Moss Side riot riot England riot riot
