Song lyrics White riot by The Clash

White riot - I wanna riot
White riot - a riot of my own
White riot - I wanna riot
White riot - a riot of my own

Black people gotta lot a problems
But they don´t mind throwing a brick
White people go to school
Where they teach you how to be thick

An´ everybody´s doing
Just what they´re told to
An´ nobody wants
To go to jail!

All the power´s in the hands
Of people rich enough to buy it
While we walk the street
Too chicken to even try it

Everybody´s doing
Just what they´re told to
Nobody wants
To go to jail!

Are you taking over
Or are you taking orders?
Are you going backwards
Or are you going forwards?
