When
they
kick
at

front
door
Quand
ils

à
ta
porte
How

gonna
come?
Comment
tu
vas
faire
?
With
your
hands
on
your
head
Les
mains
sur
la
tête
Or
on
the
trigger
of
your

fusil
?

?

Tu

nous
meurtrir
Oh-oh,
the
guns
of
Brixton
Mais
tu

aux
Oh,

de
Brixton
The
money
feels
good
And
your
life
you
like
it
well
L’argent
fait
du
bien
But
surely
your
time
will
come
Et
tu
aimes
bien
ta
vie
As
in
Heaven
as
in
Hell
Mais
ton
heure
viendra
sûrement
Comme
au
ciel,
comme
en
enfer
You
see,
he
feels
like
Ivan
Born
under
the
Brixton
sun
Tu
vois,
il
se
sent
comme
Ivan
His
game
is
called
survivin'
Né
sous
le
soleil
de

At
the
end
of
the
harder
they
come
Son
jeu
s’appelle
survivre
À

fin
de
“The
Harder
They
Come”
You

it
means
no
mercy
They

pas
de
pitié
No
need
for
the
Black
Maria
Ils
l’ont
attrapé
avec
un
fusil
