[Verse 1]

Hey it's 1984

With a glimpse of what's in store

It looks like things are up to us

No talk, just action in the streets

That's what it's gonna take

No calm youth in the you. S. A

[Chorus:]

It's summertime, American riot!

I can't complain, unless I try it!

The heat is here, a teenage warning!

To those who fear, here's your warning!

[Verse 2]

This could be the year

That we could make some people think

With smarter minds we'll hit the streets

United we must make our stand

Divided we will fall

But it's up to us to take that step

[Chorus]

It's summertime, American riot!

I can't complain, unless we try it!

The heat is here, a teenage warning!

To those who fear, here's your warning!

[Bridge]

Complacent kids, that's all they want

But if they want trouble they'll get it!

Amidst years of youth unrest

And now someone is pissed, right!

[Chorus]

It's summertime, American riot!

I can't complain, unless we try it!

The heat is here, a teenage warning!

To those who fear, here's your warning!

[Outro]

Here's your warning!

Here's your warning!
