Oldham's Burning Lyrics

3cr Oldham's Burning

What's up with this town of ours?
Petrol bombs and burning cars,
All the Asians get the brunt,
From Nazi boys in the national front,

Chorus

Oldham's burning down tonight,
The town's gone mad, it just ain't right,
Different people, different ways,
Gone forever are peaceful days,

No Go Areas in the town,
It's alright if your skin is brown,
But if your skin just happens to be white,
Don't go for a walk down Glodwick tonight,

Chorus

Police are on the streets in force,
C S gas and shields of course,
Zero tolerance they've been told,
Racial tension just can't unfold,

Chorus

Racist views you all can keep,
Our skin colour is just skin deep,
Why can't we all live in peace,
Racial tension's just gotta cease,

Chorus
