It's just like you to contest
Wearing like a label on your breast
Don't you see what this takes of me?
A certain callousness complies with your charm & in your pride
A hopeful look draped in despise.
I want to give you whatever you need.
What is it you need?
Is it what I need?
I want to give you whatever you need.
What is it you need?
Is it within me?
It's hard to explain how I am getting by on so little from you.
It's hard to believe that I would let myself get so wrapped into you.
There's got to be something that would be worthwhile for me t
White Riot
CHORUS:
white riot
i wanna riot
white riot
a riot of my own
white riot
i wanna riot
white riot
a riot of my own
black men got a lot of problems
but they dont mind throwin a brick
white people go to school
where they teach you how to be real thick
and everybody's doin
just what theyre told to
an nobody wants
to go to jail
CHORUS
all the power's in the hands
of the people rich enough to buy it
while we walk the streets
too chicken to even try it
an everybody's doin
just what theyre told to
and nobody wants
to go to jail
CHORUS
are ya takin over
or are ya takin orders?
are you goin backwards,
or are you goin forwards?
CHORUS
