And you're laughing and dancing and laughing and dancing
Mort Pour Rien
Hey you in the tower you can laugh yeah
While the wool stays where it belongs
Hey you in the banlieues you can laugh last
Cause after this they can't last for long
All the city's rumbling and amored feet are marchin'
And all the cars are burning alright
All the phones are ringing and all resolve is crumblin'
And heroes will be made tonight
A smoldering rage, an invisible cage
The tender indifference of the world
Surburban intifada you cannot snuff the fires with repression
We meet it with aggression
And you're laughing and dancing
And Paris is burning
A ring within a ring within
A ring a ring a ring
Now the co*ktails go up and the fire comes
Now this is war
And the co*ktails go up and the fire comes
Now this is war
