Down by Law - Independence Day lyrics

rate me

well the kids hit the stands and the shit hit the fan

too much security but not enough maturity

the band took the stage

the kids were in a rage

all the goons were terrified - they knew they were gonna pay

every young heart in the house that night

beat a million beats

clenched fists and a little fright

no one knew who threw the first

but after that it just got worse

we said all we had to say

we did what we had to do

we meant every word we said

you can't stop a riot til its through

they tried to stop the show

we wouldn't go away

for once every voice screamed together for a day

don't worry about me, mom and dad

cause i'll be o.k.

what could I do but join the fight and pray?

We said what we had to say

we did what we had to do

we meant every word we said

broken bottles, broken bones, and the night was through
