Get Your Riot Gear Lyrics

Five Iron Frenzy Get Your Riot Gear

Something stirring in the air, a victory?
A time-bomb ticking to explode-3, 2, 1 and go
Something passive, something not
Billy clubs out, call the S.W.A.T.
Rabid dogs without a leash
Is this how you keep the peace?

You want riots? Wear your riot gear
You want violence?
Then shoot some tear gas in the air

It is written on your badge
'To serve and protect'
It seemed you only served yourself
Protecting your own neck.
Controlling with fear, menacing and threatening
You want my respect?
You better start respecting me

(Chorus)
Go and get your riot gear
Swing your girlie all around
We'll be dancing on the cinders
As the town is burning down
Swing her around, burn it all down

Something smelled of power tripping
Crowd control was rank
Tear gas everyone downtown
What you did really stank
Legislation never made you judge and jury
Marshal law now
Beat the kids down with no worries

(Repeat Chorus)

(Instrumental Break)

(Repeat Chorus)

(Backwards message)
Brad is dead, let's kill Brad
