They pull their hoods upTie their scarvesAnd congregate on high-streets 'til somebody kicks-off'Cause no-one saw it comingBut they're rooting for a riotAnd if they make their point with broken glassIt'll be impossible to ignore itThe blood was spilled in TottenhamThen the snowball starts to rollAnd for the next three nights of summertimeThe kids are gonna take controlAnd if they want mobile phones they'll fucking take 'emA plasma screen TV, and a brand new pair of trainersThey're the future of EnglandThey don't care about law and orderThey'll have anything they can get their hands onAnd they're heading straight for FootlockerWell everybody run and hideCall them all poor and deprivedBut if you watch them closelyThey're having the time of their livesOrganizing chaos, on their BlackberriesThe police can only hideFrom all the brick and rocks they throw at themDamned if they do, they'll be damned if they didn'tThen it catches like a fire, from Croydon to LiverpoolSongtexteOh and the next three nights of summertime are out ofcontrolAnd if they want mobile phones they'll fucking take 'emA plasma screen TV, and a brand new pair of trainersThey're the future of EnglandThey don't care about law and orderThey'll have anything they can get their hands onAnd they're heading straight for FootlockerWell everybody run and hideCall them all poor and deprivedBut if you listen them closelyThey're having the time of their livesThey catch their faces, up on CCTVPrint them in the newspapers for everyone to seeAnd pretty soon the country's jails are full of little kidsWell they claim that this revolt has got nothing to do withpoliticsWell all I know is since that pillock Cameron tokk thethroneThere's been a lot more violence here at homeAnd if they want mobile phones they'll fucking take 'emA plasma screen TV, and a brand new pair of trainersThey're the future of EnglandThey don't care about law and orderThey'll have anything they can get their hands onAnd they're heading straight for FootlockerWell everybody run and hideCall them all poor and deprivedBut if you watch them closelyThey're having the time of their lives Aus Songtexte Mania
