All Hell's Breakin' Loose

(album: Lick It Up - 1983)

Street hustler comes up to me one day
And I'm walking down the street, minding my own business
Now he looks me up and he looks me down and he says
"Hey man, what be this" and "What be that"
And "Why you gotta look like that?"
Well I just looked at him, I kinda laughed, I said
"Hey man, I am cool, I am the breeze."

Haven't you heard
There's a new revolution
Gotta spread the word
Too much confusion

All hell's breaking loose
Hey hey have you read the news
All hell's breaking loose
Overloading and blowing my fuse
All hell's breaking loose
Day and night, baby, night and day
All hell's breaking loose
In the streets there's a brand new way

You know we ain't always winners
But this is the life we choose
And we won't change or re-arrange
And we ain't ever ever gonna lose

It ain't always easy
When the going gets rough
When you're getting even
You gotta show your stuff
Tell about it now

Take a look around
Only one solution
Set the world on fire
Fight the institution

Gonna stand our ground
Feel the new sensation
Something's going down
Rock the nation

All hell's breaking loose
Hey hey, have you read the news
All hell's breaking loose
Overloading and blowing my fuse
All hell's breaking loose
Day and night, baby, night and day
All hell's breaking loose
Ah, take it

Haven't you heard
Only one solution
Gotta spread the word
You gotta tell it to the people right now
Take a look around
Feel the new sensation
Set the world on fire
Rock the nation

All hell's breaking loose
All hell's breaking loose
All hell's breaking loose
Baby baby baby baby woo

All hell's breaking loose
Hey, hey, have you read the news
All hell's breaking loose
Overloading and blowing my fuse
All hell's breaking loose
Day and night, baby, night and day
All hell's breaking loose
In the streets you can hear them say

All hell's breaking loose
Hey, there people, have you read the news
All hell's breaking loose
Overloading and blowing my fuse
All hell's breaking loose
It's day and night, baby, night and day
All hell's breaking loose
In the streets you can hear them say

All hell's breaking loose
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
All hell's breaking loose
Hey, there people, have you read the news
