You're it, no, you're it
Hey, you're really it, you're it
No I mean it, you're it

Say it, don't spray it
Spirit desire
(Face me)
Spirit desire
(Don't displace me)
Spirit desire, we will fall

Miss me
Don't dismiss me
Spirit desire

Spirit desire, spirit desire
Spirit desire, we will fall
Spirit desire, we will fall

Spirit desire, spirit desire
Spirit desire, we will fall
Spirit desire

Everybody's talking 'bout the stormy weather
What's a man to do but work out whether it's true?
Looking for a man with a focus and a temper
Who can open up a map and see between one and two?

Time to get it before you let it get to you
Here he comes now, stick to your guns, let him through

Everybody's coming from the winter vacation
Taking in the sun in a exaltation to you
You come running in on platform shoes
With Marshall stacks to at least just give us a clue

Ah, here it comes, I know it's someone I knew
Teenage riot in a public station, gonna fight and
Tear it up in a hyper nation for you

Now I see it, if you've got, leave it, out of the way
Now I come near you and it's not true, why you make away?

Looking for a ride to your secret location
Where the kids are setting up a free speed nation for you
Got a Foghorn and a drum and a hammer that's rockin'
And a cord and a pedal and a lock that'll do  for now

It better work out, I hope it works out my way
'Cause it's getting kind of quiet in my city head
It's a teen age riot to get me out of bed right now

You better look it, we're gonna shake it, up to him
He acts the hero, we paint a zero on his hand

We know it's down, we know it's bound to lose
Everybody's sound is around you
Everybody wants to be proud to choose
So who's to blame for the stormy weather?
You're never gonna stop all the teenage leather and booze

It's time to go 'round, a one man showdown, teach us how to fail?
We're off the streets now and back on the road on the riot trail
