Ring The Alarm Lyrics

[00:00.88] Oh gosh, in the street
[00:01.84] Big bird if they arrested me
[00:03.32] Had to boot the door in when they wouldn't open sesame
[00:06.16] I'm my bruddahs keeper, so you know I got him next to me
[00:09.04] And if you shot the sheriff, then you know I shot the deputy
[00:11.48]
[00:11.88]
[00:12.28] (Ring the alarm) Ring the alarm
[00:14.60] (Woah, hey)
[00:17.84] (Ring the alarm) Ring the alarm
[00:20.32] (Woah, hey)
[00:22.48]
[00:22.96]
[00:24.20] Burn it down, burn it down
[00:25.36] Burn Babylon to the ground
[00:27.08] Watch their heads start rolling every time I come around
[00:29.72] Natty 'pon a mission when you hear the Vylan sound
[00:32.64] Why do you think they call me Bob? I chase the baldheads out of town
[00:35.52] You know I had a vision when I was making death threats, so that I could make a living
[00:40.64] Didn't want to see me winning, rather see me in a prison
[00:43.84] The man were billing zoots, now it's headlines that were billing
[00:46.52]
[00:47.08]
[00:47.24] Oh gosh, in the street
[00:48.32] Big bird if they arrested me
[00:49.96] Had to boot the door in when they wouldn't open sesame
[00:52.56] I'm my bruddahs keeper, so you know I got him next to me
[00:55.60] And if you shot the sheriff, then you know I shot the deputy
[00:58.00]
[00:58.40]
[00:58.80] (Ring the alarm) Ring the alarm
[01:01.72] (Woah, hey)
[01:04.24] (Ring the alarm) Ring the alarm
[01:09.76] (Woah, hey)

[01:13.60] (Woah, hey)
[01:16.20] (Ring the alarm) Ring the alarm
[01:19.20] (Woah, hey)
[01:20.16]
[01:20.64]
[01:22.64] Burn it down, burn it down
[01:23.88] I stand firm up on the ground
[01:25.20] I was out there by myself, I had to learn to earn a pound
[01:28.00] I shout "Black is beautiful," they act like they ain't heard a sound
[01:30.80] I hear sirens in the distance, them murderers lurking 'round
[01:33.68] Kill the culture if they can't put it in prison
[01:36.12] Bust a smile for Smiley and his Cockney rhyming wisdom
[01:38.88] They won't touch me with their shackles
[01:40.52] It's a dungeon, don't forget
[01:42.00] I see Lucifer on Earth, dressed up like the London Met
[01:44.52]
[01:44.84]
[01:45.24] Oh gosh, in the street
[01:46.12] Big bird if they arrested me
[01:48.04] Had to boot the door in when they wouldn't open sesame
[01:50.44] I'm my bruddahs keeper, so you know I got him next to me
[01:53.40] And if you shot the sheriff, then you know I shot the deputy
[01:56.52]
[01:56.80] (Ring the alarm) Ring the alarm
[01:58.76] (Woah, hey)
