Ode to Riot

by Call The Cops

on Bastards (2016), Bastards LP (2016)

All my friends are gone to bed, and by now
I am a monster roaming a monster called my Town
No freaking alibis, no fucking patronize
This the place that makes me sick, yet the place I wanna live

It's a ode to riot, emancipate me in this fucking lie
It's a ode to riot, tonight's Goliath on the fucking run, go

The alarm siren moaning, it's my LSD
The sound of broken glass's my fucking OST
First time I met you babe, you got me dopesick, 'til
I'm walking the streets of jeopardy, walking the streets of jeopardy

It's a ode to riot, emancipate in this fucking lie
It's a ode to riot, tonight's Goliath on the fucking run, go

I'm no knight of Justice, I'm no lion 'cause
Men want a world that's fair just if injustice they can't climb
It's way easier than that, no rationality
'Cause I don't feel sick with society, just when I smash up everything

It's a ode to riot, emancipate me to this fucking lie
It's a ode to riot, tonight's Goliath on the fucking run, go
