Oh, the verdict inside was frightful
But riots are so delightful
Since the grand jury's adjourned
Let it burn, let it burn, let it burn

We all brought guns for shootin'
And we got six packs from lootin'
The fires give an eerie glow
Let it burn, let it burn, let it burn

And we finally get big screens
We'll be hitting the stores in a swarm
Shows how we honor dead teens
By the way this is the norm

The fires are just a sootin'
And look here, we're still store lootin'
Since there's no money to earn
Let it burn, let it burn, let it burn

And we finally get big screens
We'll be hitting the stores in a swarm
Shows how we honor dead teens
By the way this is the norm

The fires are just a sootin'
And look here, we're still store lootin'
Since there's no money to earn
Let it burn, let it burn, let it burn
