Whatcha gonna do when they come kicking down your front door? Will you lay down, surrender like you did before? Suffocating on the broken promises you can't ignore The pressure's mounting Remember what you're fighting for Lay down your arms take your pill sit still and obey What's in the harm, kill your will Find someone to betray Lose control of your mind and soul in the modern day decay The riot's starting Can the kids come out and play?
Whoa Set 'em up Knock 'em down Light it up (Cause) we run this town
Batten down the hatches Lock the windows cuz They're breaking in Out on the street let me hear your battle hymn Keep your finger on the trigger Notify your next of kin Chance for survival, optimistically is one in ten Give up the fight Stand down and walk away Like a dying light Once bright now starting to grey Did you lose control of your mind And soul in a modern day decay? The riots starting Can the kids come out and play?
So laddie doddie, the system is shoddy Just take your punches in bunches And go exploit somebody So come on, lose control of your mind and soul In a modern day decay The riots starting Hey kids, come out and play!
