Rugburns - Rioting Lyrics
Theyre rioting in my front yardTheyre sending in the national guardPeople lootin, people shootin, baby I aint just tootin my hornTheyre rioting in my front yardTheyre grabbing all the beer and diapersAnd dont forget the windshield wipersFifty pairs, who cares? man well sell em at the fairAnd yeah theyre rioting in my front yardTheyre burning manny, moe, and jackThe pep boys got a broken backTheyre stealin clothes and breaking toesHey, did you see that broken nose?And man, theyre rioting in my front yardThe news you cant miss, noIt looks like a hit showThe choppers are taking to the airThe walls are coming downAnd yeah theyre burning up this townAt least the ratings will be up this year (burn baby, burn)Now rodney king may not have been a saintBut what they did to him could make you faintWe hear the whip, we hear the crack, and just because his skin was blackNow theyre rioting in my front yardNow a man aint got a reason to smileIf he gets a beating without a trialHey wouldnt you be pissed they said gorillas in the mistAnd now theyre rioting in my front yardHalf these people havent got a clueTheyre stealing clothes and saying, rodney who?Theyve got it all wrong, it seems well never get alongAnd now theyre rioting in my front yardWell man, theyre rioting in my front yardOh yeah, theyre rioting in my front yard
