It's summer time and the country's on the line The lads are on the streets and the riots doing fine Picking up the pieces after the night Picking up the pieces for another fight The bricks beat down in the boys in blue There's no escape they're coming for you The walls come crashing 'round your head It's war on the streets and they're running red
Police are running facing defeat Cities burning in the summer heat Police are running facing defeat Cities burning in the summer heat
The crowd is screaming you can hear all their cries There's no way to stop tear-gas clouds Police are running, facing defeat Tears are falling in the summer heat
Police are running facing defeat Cities burning in the summer heat Police are running facing defeat Cities burning in the summer heat
The bricks beat down in the boys in blue There's no escape, they're coming for you The walls come crashing 'round your head It's war on the streets and they're running red
