Riot

That's right, lookin' like
You don't give a huh tonight
You're not shutting up tonight
La-la-la-la-la-la-la, come on
I wanna do good,
But the good's all done
Come on another kind of mission
Running out of fun
Wanna go get some
Get a like for the living
Feel that shudder in the conscience
Right when I bump into a rising sun
That's higher than then I want now
I pull it back down and keep it going
So I dance like I'm starting a riot
I got the fuse already ignited
It's too late now for us to fight it
Oh no, I think I might have started a riot
Riot, oh no
I don't make the rules but I break them up
I'm just a lover lookin' dangerous
Roll over the cuffs, and your collar up
And I'm ready now to get into it
Head down, underneath the blackout
Blinding lights and the electric sound
Of something saying let's go
Closer to the middle
And they see me coming
Cuz I dance like I'm starting a riot
I got the fuse already ignited
It's too late now for us to fight it
Oh no, I think I might have started a riot
Riot, oh no
Oh no
I think I might have started a riot
Oh no,
I think I might have started a riot
Riot oh no
Alright, lookin' like,
We don't give a huh tonight
I'm not shuttin' up tonight
La la la la la la come on
And gun gun, baby gun
Louder or I'm moving on
Everything now all at once
Hit me in the bullet punch
That's right, lookin' like,
We don't give a huh tonight
I'm not shuttin' up tonight
La la la la la la come on
And gun gun, baby gun
Louder or I'm moving on
Everything now all at once
Hit me with that punch
Cuz I dance like I'm starting a riot
I got the fuse already ignited
It's too late now for us to fight it
Oh no, I think I might have started a riot
Riot, oh no
Oh no
I think I might have started a riot
Oh no,
I think I might have started a riot
Riot, oh no
