The kids are restless
They just need something to do
From Ilford to Ladywell
The streets have become cruel

He said
"I will not listen and I won't be told
England is mine, I will take what I want"
He said
"I will not listen and I won't be told
We will roam these satanic mills"

They stood on his fingers
Kicked the back of his head like a ball
They filmed the beating
On their mobile phones

She said
"I will not listen and I won’t be told
England is mine, I will take what I want"
She said
"I will not listen and I won’t be told
We will make up our own rules"

I'm waiting for something cruel,
I'm waiting for something cruel,
I'm waiting for something cruel,
I'm waiting for something cruel,
I'm just waiting for something cruel,
I'm just waiting for something cruel,
I'm waiting for something cruel to happen
