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 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

On Saturday night

And started big trouble

In the quiet street

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
