Chaos by The 4 Skins
INTRO: D A G G (with lead)
D A G G
Do you remember in 1969?, Seeing all the skinheads standing in a line
Foaming at the mouth, Waiting for a fight, High boots, cropped hair, what a fuckin sight
CHORUS:
F G
Come back of the skinhead, come back of the boot
People that we don't beat up, We're gonna fucking shoot
F F G G
We are the new breed, we will have our say, we are the new breed, we ain't gonna die
Trouble east London, Trouble in the street, On the street corners Where the gang still meets
Talking about the weekend, What they're gonna do? If you aint careful, They are gonna do you!
REPEAT CHORUS:
REPEAT INTRO:
Chaos in the city, Civil war now, Skinheads taking over, Like skinheads know how
Skinhead with his boots on, Nobodys fool, Skinheads taking over, Chaos is the rule!
CHORUS (different lyrics)
Chaos, chaos, chaos - dont give a toss
Chaos, chaos, chaos - dont give a toss!
