paroles de chanson April 29, 1992 (Miami) - Sublime

I don't know if you can, but can you get
An owner for Ons that's O-N-S, Junior Market?
The address is 1934, East Anaheim
All the windows are busted out
And it's like a free-for-all in here
And, uh, the owner should at least come down here
And see if he can secure his business, if he wants to

April 26th, 1992
There was a riot on the streets
Tell me, where were you?
You were sittin' home watchin' your TV
While I was participating in some anarchy

First spot we hit it was my liquor store
I finally got all that alcohol I can't afford
With red lights flashin', time to retire
And then we turned that liquor store into a structure fire

Next stop we hit it 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 that you're hearing today?
Hey

Call fire and tell them to respond to the mobile station
At Alamidos and Anaheim, it's, ah, flamin' up good
10-4, Alamedas and Anaheim
Homicide, never doin' no time

When we returned to the pad to unload everything
It dawned on me that I need new home furnishings
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 and harder each and every year
Some kids went in a store with their mother
I saw her when she came out, she was gettin' some Pampers

They said it was for the black man
They said it was for the Mexican
And not for the white man
But if you look at the streets
It wasn't about Rodney King
And this fucked up situation and these fucked up police

It's about coming up
And staying on top
And screaming 187 on a motherfuckin' cop
It's not in the paper, it's on the wall
National guard
Smoke from all around

Units - units be advised of an attempt 211
To arrest now at 938 Temple, 9-3-8 Temple
Thirty subjects with bats trying to get inside the CP's house
I think they're gonna turn to fighting, to kill him
As long as I'm alive, I'ma live illegal

Let it burn
Wanna let it burn
Wanna let it burn
Wanna, wanna let it burn
(I feel insanity)

Riots on the streets of Miami
Whoa, riots on the streets of Chicago
On the streets of Long Beach
And San Francisco (Boise, Idaho)

Riots on the streets of Kansas City (Salt Lake, Huntington Beach, California)
Tuscaloosa, Alabama (Compton, Michigan)
Cleveland, Ohio (Pensacola)
Fountain Valley (Texas, Barstow, let's do this every year)
Paramount, Victorville (twice a year)

Eugene, Oregon
Eureka, California (let it burn, let it burn)
Hesperia (oh, yeah, let it burn, wont'cha wont'cha let it burn)
Santa Barbara
Winnemucca, Nevada

Phoenix, Arizona
San Diego
Lakeland, Florida
Fucking 29 Palms

Any unit to assist Frank-74, Willow at Caspian
Structure fire and numerous subjects looting
