I heard it on the radio there was a riot downtown The hooligans are here Smashing windows, breaking faces, running wild The hooligans are here I saw it through my window, there's a riot downtown The hooligans are here Drinking, fighting, burning cars, screaming loud The hooligans are here I see them run through the city tonight The sound of sirens makes them more anxious to fight You better watch out if you go out tonight Because the hooligans are ready to fight The flames of a burning cop car Is spreading heat into the summer night
