Letra de Street War - Emerson, Lake & Palmer

You can see it on the Tv - or in a magazine
And you can read it in the headlines - it's bloody Hallowe'en
Behind the politics of freedom and burning gasoline
If we keep drivin' on this freeway , it's goodnight, Josephine
Eyes ablaze with virtue- they raise the sword of state
But still I see no compromise - iIt's our heart upon the slate
We're driven to the ledges just one step to the wire
We're under siege, it's face to face - one spark can start a fire

Street war - they're burning in the ghetto
Street war - there's writing on the wall
Street war - you can't paint over anger
Street war - the rock's about to fall

You can dial up a murder - you're watchin' 911
Or you can tune into a psychic force, the mystery has just begun
And if you wanna see the kids at school- you'd better take a gun

There'll be a curfew in the dead of night until we see the risin' sun
Crazy-eyed fanatics, militia man invades
Inspired by insanity, to storm the barricades
Where diamonds buy election, the soul of freedom bleeds
for the martyr and the madman, it's the flame on which it feeds

Street war - we're blinded by ambition
Street war - we turn the other cheek
Street war - the guilty stand convicted
Street war - by every word they speak

Street war - it's trial by oppression
Street war - we're strung out on a plate
Street war - for every dream you vaporize
Street war - you sow the seeds of hate
