[length: 04:54]
[00:33.20]This morning I woke up in a curfew;
[00:39.55]O God, I was a prisoner, too – yeah!
[00:47.72]Could not recognize the faces standing over me;
[00:54.02]They were all dressed in uniforms of brutality. Eh!
[01:01.34]How many rivers do we have to cross,
[01:09.58]Before we can talk to the boss? Eh!
[01:17.64]All that we got, it seems we have lost;
[01:24.98]We must have really paid the cost.
[01:30.34](That’s why we gonna be)
[01:32.24]Burnin’ and a-lootin’ tonight;
[01:36.79](Say we gonna burn and loot)
[01:39.49]Burnin’ and a-lootin’ tonight;
[01:44.05](One more thing)
[01:46.74]Burnin’ all pollution tonight;
[01:51.21](Oh, yeah, yeah)
[01:53.03]Burnin’ all illusion tonight.
[01:58.56]Oh, stop them!
[02:01.25]Give me the food and let me grow;
[02:08.55]Let the Roots Man take a blow.
[02:15.70]All them drugs gonna make you slow now;
[02:23.96]It’s not the music of the ghetto. Eh!
[02:30.30]Weeping and a-wailin’ tonight;
[02:38.50](Who can stop the tears?)
[02:39.37]Weeping and a-wailin’ tonight;
[02:48.48](We’ve been suffering these long, long-a years!)
[02:49.37]Weeping and a-wailin’ tonight
[02:52.12](Will you say cheer?)
[02:53.02]Weeping and a-wailin’ tonight
[02:58.47](But where?)
[02:59.36]Give me the food and let me grow;
[03:29.34]Let the Roots Man take a blow.
[03:31.16]I must say: all them – all them drugs gonna make you slow;
[03:32.01]It’s not the music of the ghetto.
[03:32.96]We gonna be burning and a-looting tonight;
[03:37.48](To survive, yeah!)
[03:38.36]Burning and a-looting tonight;
[03:42.95](Save your baby lives)
[03:43.83]Burning all pollution tonight;
[03:46.54](Pollution, yeah, yeah!)
[03:50.10]Burning all illusion tonight
[03:55.68](Lord-a, Lord-a, Lord-a, Lord!)
[03:57.44]Burning and a-looting tonight;
[04:01.09]Burning and a-looting tonight;
[04:11.93]Burning all pollution tonight. /fadeout/
