Lyrics
There's a Coca Cola Kid in Seattle night
Not blinded by the Washington spotlight
Now he don't know, but he's been told
That no government ever had soul
TV covers and NASCAR rules
Well, he's taxed to death while he pays his dues
Capital riots in the street tonight
Moves like a bullet in the neon light
Don't want no nightstick justice from the men in blue
No 1984 coming after you
Well, we'll march on through the streets in time
Through the swings and the arrows and the dirt and grime
Ten years from now, no one will remember
A backstreet moment or last December
To every punk that has gone before
This is your song now and forever more
Capital riots in the street tonight
Moves like a bullet in the neon light
Don't want no nightstick justice from the men in blue
No 1984 coming after you
All around this globe
It's government control
Overhead or under you
They're coming after you
Capital riots in the street tonight
Moves like a bullet, we've got to fight
Don't want no nightstick justice from the men in blue
No 1984 coming after you
In every brick and mortar town
The rain comes down
Let's salute the groovy corporate
Makes the world go 'round
But there's a kid out there
Who hears a different sound
