I walk down the west gate The girls are in their Friday best The men are wearing anger Tonight there'll be nothing left Let's drink the bars dry Let's drain this town tonight Will someone catch my eye? Will I get in a fight? Let's paint this town red Let's paint it with our blood Open the city gates and let this city flood I find comfort in the violence In these streets that crave some silence These shades of hate they're smashing down my door They'll drink the bars dry They'll drain this town tonight You won't take my dignity have some humility You better run for your life Let's paint this town red Let's paint it with our blood Open the city gates and let this city burn Let's paint this town red Let's paint it with our blood Open the city gates and let this city burn It's the same old story It's the same no hope No guts no glory on which I will choke Let's paint this town red Let's paint it with our blood Open the city gates and let this city burn It's the same old story Same no hope No guts no glory Let this city burn It's the same old story same dead end No jobs more worries let this city burn Let's paint this town red Let's paint it with our blood Open the city gates and let this city burn Let's burn this city down Let's burn it to the ground There's seven shades of hate Destruction of this town We will never learn So let this city burn Let this city burn Let this city burn right to the ground
