Trouble in town
Because they cut my brother down
Because my sister can’t wear her crown
There’s trouble, there’s trouble in town
Blood on the beat
Oh my goodness there’s blood on the beat
The law of the jungle or the law of the street
There’s blood on, there’s blood on the beat
And I get no shelter
And I get no peace
And I never get released
Trouble in town
Because they hung my brother brown
Because their system just keeps you down
There’s trouble there’s trouble in town
And I get no shelter
And I get no peace
And I just get more police
And I get no comfort
And I get no name
Everything is getting strange
(There must be some way
Or it’s going to kick off some day)
