Woah yeah

Say yeah,come on
It makes my world stand still
Ahh riot, rape, race and revolution, ah yeah
Here come the fire, and my world burns still
Yoww say yeah
Well, you can rock this land baby yowww
Like a shock to the system
I feel good, well alright

Say yeah, ain't it irie

Hell of a night, L.A., it really was
Oh what a riot
