Brixton Lyrics - B-sides & C-sides - Rancid

I saw - a new generationcoming 

Under - the smoke over Oakland 

In and out - the streets are breathing 

Under - the smoke over Oakland 

Chaos disorder looting and loiter 

From a blind man praying for some silence - for some silence 

???Take a loot on the moon not a foot in the room??? 

My best intentions always ended in a fight - in a fight 

You can send me to hell expose me I'll tell 

Just take control and say what they're doing - what they're doing 

Two-fifty dead the tribune read Oakland's going off like a bomb! 

I saw - a new generation coming 

Under - the smoke over Oakland 

In and out - the streets are breathing 

Under - the smoke over Oakland 

Armageddon is coming so yea you better start running 

Cause the big wave is coming to the shore - to the shore 

No surprise that you see thru the lies 

of a system rotten to the core - to the core 

High tech surveilence paranoia and violence 

Keeping the city at a calm - at a calm 

Two-fifty dead the tribune read Oakland's going off like a bomb! 

I saw - a new generation coming 

Under - the smoke over Oakland 

In and out - the streets are breathing 

Under - the smoke over Oakland 

Man it just don't seem right 

You see every time I turn I around it's just the same story and it's like 

It just don't seem right and I wonder is it gonna end?Hit it! 

Knocking down the doors slogans on the walls 

One said fight back yea the system will falL 

The police came out with tear gas and flames 

Chaos in the city beating them at the game 

Don't pay the poll tax the headlines read 

Thirty cops beaten another one dead 

The fight lasted on through the Brixton night 

A thousand angry looters who knew they were right 

I saw - a new generation coming 

Under - the smoke over Oakland 

In and out - the streets are breathing 

Under - the smoke over Oakland 

I saw - a new generation coming 

Under - the smoke over Oakland 

In and out - the streets are breathing 

Under - the smoke over Oakland
