It's been a long dry season in tinderbox town
And the ghetto cars go cruising up and down and round and round
With tinted windows and screeching tyres
Poverty likes to ride in the best disguise
The boys get bored, set fire to the sheds at the end of my street
The thick black smoke rises up into the doors
The sirens scream out across the hill
Turn into the close and the boys all swagger
I've got no quarrel with you, brother
But the war is getting closer
Down at the union and there we stood
And embraced like brothers should
The fire catches when your back is turned
And now we watch as the city burns
And now we watch as the city burns
We used to joke about the colour of our skins
We used to joke about the names of god
But now the racist cops come round
Put your cousin up against a wall
Little crowd gathers round and takes up sides
The white trash come out of their doorways and mutter
There's a macho stand-off and sullen faces all around
And the middle ground is washing away
And no-one really wants it there anyway
That's the time for pack dogs, brother
But the war is getting closer
Down at the union and there we stood
And embraced like brothers should
The fire catches when your back is turned
And now we watch as the city burns
And now we watch as the city burns
Down at the union and there we stood
And embraced like brothers should
Down at the union and there we stood
And embraced like brothers should
The fire catches when your back is turned
The fire catches when your back is turned
And now we watch as the city burns
And now we watch as the city burns
And now we watch as the city burns (3x)
And I, I accuse you
You want so much, but you give nothing of your self
And I believe you
You want so much, but you give nothing of your self
