"Barricade (1789 - 1968 - 2011)" lyrics

"Barricade (1789 - 1968 - 2011)"

He stashed a bag of swag in the boot of his beamer
Walked into the bar asked anybody seen her
Ten Bag Terry said "You heard the news
She was waltzing down the frontline wearing no shoes?"
He got a Jack Daniels and a Budweiser Chaser
To Ten Bag Terry said "I'll see you later"
Met her on the street, met her on the corner
She was, she was ready to rumble

Wanna build a barricade with you
Watch the molotovs fly high with you
I wanna spray paint the city
Situationist Graffiti
I wanna build a barricade with you

So, they scored a bag of joy off the gravedigger's daughter
Clocked the back slapping coppers coming out of the whorehouse
Knock off Nigel dissing Indonesia
Flogging knock off Nikes to some kids down from Cleveland
Everybody's talking Frankie got deported
Gangsters in their uniforms keep on walking
He put a brick in her hand - said "lets go try our luck"
I'll gamble a gram that well that we don't get busted

Wanna build a barricade with you
Watch the molotovs fly high with you
I wanna spray paint the city
Situationist Graffiti
I wanna build a barricade with you

Liberté egalité fraternité
Beat a police...
