<b>The Guns of Brixton <br />1979 by The CLASH on the London Calling LP <br />Music & lyrics : Paul Simonon (bassist)<br />live</b><br /><br />When they kick at your front door <br />How you gonna come? <br />With your hands on your head <br />Or on the trigger of your gun <br /><br />When the law break in <br />How you gonna go? <br />Shot down on the pavement <br />Or waiting on death row <br /><br />You can crush us <br />You can bruise us <br />But you'll have to answer to <br />Oh, the guns of Brixton <br /><br />The money feels good <br />And your life you like it well <br />But surely your time will come <br />As in heaven, as in hell <br /><br />You see, he feels like Ivan <br />Born under the Brixton sun <br />His game is called survivin' <br />At the end of the harder they come <br /><br />You know it means no mercy <br />They caught him with a gun <br />No need for the Black Maria <br />Goodbye to the Brixton sun <br /><br />You can crush us <br />You can bruise us <br />Yes, even shoot us <br />But oh-the guns of Brixton <br /><br />When they kick at your front door <br />How you gonna come? <br />With your hands on your head <br />Or on the trigger of your gun <br /><br />You can crush us <br />You can bruise us <br />Yes, even shoot us <br />But oh-the guns of Brixton <br /><br />Shot down on the pavement <br />Waiting in death row <br />His game is called survivin' <br />As in heaven as in hell <br /><br />You can crush us <br />You can bruise us <br />But you'll have to answer to <br />Oh, the guns of Brixton <br /><br /><i>Le Royaume de Zinzin</i>
