Something's gone wrong

Something ain't right

 They smashed through the window

On Saturday night

 And started big trouble

 In the quiet street

 They were shouting hey Abdullah

Are you coming out to fight

Standing on the corner

In the yellow street light

 With sticks and stones and bottles

 With broken glass

 Well they know

 They're gonna clean up the neighbourhood

 Don't want no foreigners, oh no

 They gave it to him in the head

Didn't wanna listen to what he said

They had a job to do

They had to see it through

Yes they had a job to do

 And a cause to be true to

Something's gone wrong

Something ain't right

 They smashed through the window

On Saturday night

 And started big trouble

 In the quiet street

 The guy could not get away

Try as he might

Now he knows the story

Of black meets white

 And he's gonna tell his children

 All about it

 Well they know

 They're gonna clean up the neighbourhood

 Don't want no foreigners, oh no

 They gave it to him in the head

Didn't wanna listen to what he said

They had a job to do

They had to see it through

Yes they had a job to do

 And a cause to be true to
