Song Structure

(intro played twice)

Verse Riff

April 29,1992 there was a riot on the steets tell
me where were you. while you were sittin' home
watchin' your t.v., i was participating in some
anarchy. first spot we hit it was my liquor store i
finally got all the alcohol i can't afford with red light's
flashin' it was time to retire, then we turned that
liquor store into a structure fire next stop
we hit was the music shop it only took one
brick to make that window drop finally we got our
own p.a. where do you think i got this guitar your hearing today.

Bridge riff (w/background vocals)

Verse Riff

when we returned to the pad to unload everything
it dawned on me that i need new home furnishing
so once again we filled the van until it was full
since that day my livin' room's been much more comfortable
cause everybody in the hood has had it up to here
it's getting harder and harder each and every year
some kids went in a store with their mother
i saw when she came out she was gettin' some pampers'
they said it was for the black man they said it was for the mexican
but not for the white man but if you look at the streets 
it wasn't about Rodney King it's bout this fucked up
situation and the fuckin police its about coming up and staying
on top and screamin 187 on a motherfuckin' cop 
its not written on the papers but it's written on the wall
national guard smoke from all around

Bridge ( with background police beat? )

Intro Riff with Bridge ending.

Verse Riff

Let it burn, want to let it burn.......
(He goes on and names a bunch of cities leaving out philly.  i was disappointed)
