Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Wake up in the night
Fighting with my sheets, fighting my sleep
Molotovs whilst we're fighting in the streets
Taking aim at the Bobbies on the beat
Well, if they're gonna do the crime then they're gonna take the heat
[PreChorus]
And everybody's saying call 999
Everybody's saying call 999
And everybody's saying call 999
Call the swine, call the swine, call the swine
[Chorus]
And when they come in the middle of the night
Will you cower in the corner or fight, fight, fight, fight
When will you say that enough is enough?
When their hands 'round the necks of the ones you love?
It's not one bad apple, it's the whole god damn tree
And when they come in the middle of the night
Will you cower in the corner or fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight
[Verse 2]
So many cases, so many cases
If they're not rapists, they're fucking racists
Hiding their faces so we can't see
But they still catch us on the CCTV
When they act above the law that they swore to protect
To protect all the people that we didn't elect
They call it order, I call it disrespect
If they want justice, well, that's what they'll get
[PreChorus]
And everybody's saying call 999
Everybody's saying call 999
And everybody's saying call 999
Call the swine, call the swine, call the swine
[Chorus]
And when they come in the middle of the night
Will you cower in the corner or fight, fight, fight, fight
When will you say that enough is enough?
When their hands 'round the necks of the ones you love?
It's not one bad apple, it's the whole god damn tree
And when they come in the middle of the night
Will you cower in the corner or fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight
[Chorus]
And when they come in the middle of the night
Will you cower in the corner or fight, fight, fight, fight
When will you say that enough is enough?
With their hands 'round the necks of the ones you love?
It's not one bad apple, it's the whole god damn tree
And when they come in the middle of the night
Will you cower in the corner or fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight
