Glife in Brixton, Bfeel the heat
too much trouble on the street
but I'm not gonna leave
if i go anywhere else, i've got nothing to achieve

Kentucky fried chicken and a few chip shops
there's quite a few punx and too many cops
REPEAT CHORUS:
REPEAT BREAK:
VERSE: (same chords)
we're not national front, not even racist
we're not British movement and not facist
REPEAT CHORUS:
REPEAT BREAK:
