I just though I'd put some more correct lyrics than the ones that are already posted here...
[verse]
I saw a man get the beatdown
Took his money and his wallet, left him dead on the ground
I saw them gather to celebrate the crime
Teaching us a lesson, yeah a lesson in mankind
I raise my hand, I got another question
If I start a riot, will I get protection?
{they say different things next line, depending on what version of the song}
Cuz I'm (a kid who's got a lot of problems) [the kid who always got a problem]
If I throw a brick maybe the brick is gonna solve them
[chorus]
Oh! Yeah! I wanna riot!
[verse]
I'm burning up, the city's on heat
A fatal level of tension, you know it's on the street
Code blue, the city of the dead
Sirens in the night with the lights bloody red
See how we do this, see how we ride
Throw a brick, light the fuse, dodge a bullet, duck inside
Another statistic hammered on my brain
Branded with another pawn in the game
[verse]
In front of me, they backed away
Coming in a line ?????????????????
My place is burning, burning so quick
Burning like a candle at the end of it's wick
Well, I turned the dial, I turned the channel
I turned it to a monster fighting the eternal battle
I need some help, yeah, there's no doubt
If I'm gonna go down, I'm gonna take somebody out
