Startin' out with Berkeley Free Speech
And later on at People's Park
The winds of change fanned into flames
Student demonstrations spark
Down to Isla Vista
Where police felt so harassed
They called the special riot squad
Of the L.A. County Sheriff
Well, there's a riot goin' on
There's a riot goin' on
There's a riot goin' on
Student demonstration time
The violence spread down South to where Jackson State brothers
Learned not to say nasty things about Southern policemen's mothers
Nothin' much was said about it and really next to nothin' done
The pen is mightier than the sword, but no match for a gun
Well, there's a riot goin' on
Well, there's a riot goin' on
Well, there's a riot goin' on
'Cause it's student demonstration time
America was stunned on May 4, 1970
When rally turned to riot up at Kent State University
They said the students scared the Guard, though the troops were battle dressed
Four martyrs earned a new degree, The Bachelor of Bullets
I know we're all fed up with useless wars and racial strife
But next time there's a riot, well, you best stay out of sight
When there's a riot goin' on, oh
There's a riot goin' on
When there's a riot goin' on
Student demonstration time
Stay away when there's a riot goin' on
Student demonstration
Stay away when there's a riot goin' on
Student demonstration
Stay away when there's a riot goin' on
Student demonstration
Stay away when there's a riot goin' on
It's student demonstration
Stay away when there's a riot goin' on
Student demonstration
Stay away when there's a riot goin' on
It's student demonstration
Stay away when there's a riot goin' on
It's student demonstration
Stay away when there's a riot goin' on
It's student demonstration time
Stay away when there's a riot goin' on
It's student demonstration time
