This morning I woke up in a curfew
Oh god, I was a prisoner too - yeah
Could not recognise the faces standing over me
They were all dressed in uniforms of brutality

How many rivers do we have to cross
Before we can talk to the boss
All that we got seems lost
We must have really paid the cost

That's why we gonna be
Burnin' and a-lootin' tonight
Say we gonna burn and loot
Burnin' and a-lootin' tonight
One more thing
Burnin all pollution tonight
Oh yeah, yeah
Burning all illusions tonight
Oh stop them

Give me the food and let me grow
Let the roots man take a blow
All them drugs gonna make you slow now
It's not the music of the ghetto

Weeping and a-tonight
Ooh can't stop the tears
Weepin' and a-wailin' tonight
We've been suffering all these long, long years
Weeping and a-tonight

Give me the food and let me grow
Let the roots man take a blow
All them drugs gonna make you slow now
It's not the music of the ghetto

We gonna be burnin' and a-lootin' tonight
To survive, yeah
Burnin' and a-lootin' tonight
Save your babies lives
Burning all pollution tonight
Burning all illusions tonight

Burnin and lootin tonight
Burnin and lootin tonight
