Verse
I'd go down to the Strip tonight
I'm not on a stay-home trip tonight
Long hair seems to be the main attraction
But the heat is causing all the action
Pre-chorus
Bright lights everywhere
Pretty girls with long blonde hair
But somehow the people they don't care
Chorus
It just doesn't seem fair
To bug you 'cause you got long hair
Even the parents are beginning to stare
Post-chorus:
B [continue with intro riff]
Because of the sirens on our streets
They used to be neat
But now it's just a place for black and white cars to race
It's causin' a riot
It's causin' a riot, yeah
[guitar solo over intro riff, 8X]
[repeat pre-chorus]
[repeat chorus]
[repeat post-chorus]
Coda [ranted over intro riff]:
It's causin' a riot
It's causin' a riot, everywhere
People runnin' around, riots everywhere
Pushin', pushin', pushin' everywhere [fade]
