Riot from Alien Bra by The Outbursts

OK so it’s not LA,
It’s north London on a Saturday
These are the only chords we play
If you don’t need it throw it away

Chorus

I’m gonna start a riot
Burn your books, throw your records away
Year zero begins today
Year zero begins today

It’s not Woodstock or Haight-Ashbury
it’s a long tall glass of reality
Want some of it well it’s not for free
Put down your soul and pay the rest weekly

Chorus

I’m gonna start a riot
Burn your books, throw your records away
Year zero begins today
Year zero begins today

Riot Grrrls, Ravers, Punks and Teds,
Mods and Rockers, Hippies and Skinheads
Bankers, wankers, politicians
A whole generation of no ambition

Father, son and the holy ghost,
Rock ’n’ Roll and riots on the east coast
Brother anarchists and love bomb diffusers
Users, losers, rug abusers

Chorus

I’m gonna start a riot
Burn your books, throw your records away
Year zero begins today
Year zero begins today

I’m gonna start a riot
Smash your guitar and walk out the door
Bet no one’s done that before

I’m gonna start a riot
Smash your guitar and walk out the door
Bet no one’s done that before

Oi!
