East Side Beat (live)-The Toasters

In a beat up Ford Cortina on saturday nights Second Step and Urban Blight Hear come the Boilers to check out the scene But that's never too true if you know what I mean The reception is cool, so turn up the heat Come on boys do some East Side Beat Pick up your piece and make your play I wonder what the old man will say Caught in the act with a gun in your hand And a fat old judge doesn't understand Burning and looting down on the street Come on boys do some East Side Beat Out in the jungle on a saturday night Trip over a junky and there's two in a fight Go over to the fellas just chewin the fat Shark skin apes in pork pie hats Big ugly skinhead across the street Come on boys do the East Side Beat In to this sticka for a rack of pool There's a girl at the bar that's beginning to drool One more chaser I'll move right in She gets much fresher as I feel up my skin Keep the chasers cold and the whisky neat Come on boys do the East Side Beat So it's up in the morning dreadlox straight Out on the turf its a theatre of hate In a land you can't even call your own And the big fat coppers won't leave you alone Push you around do the law with their feet Come on boys do the East Side Beat So it's off to jail put and up into the dock Send you off for a short sharp shock Tell racist jokes as they put you away Never even listen to what the hell you say Burning police cars down on the street Come on boys do the East Side Beat East Side Beat! East Side Beat! East Side Beat! East Side Beat! Burning police cars down on the street Come on boys do some East Side Beat!
