Burning barricades Proud they stood on burning barricades Underground warriors without a home Molotov co*ktails flying through the air That they turned their hearts to stone Everyone saw the police brutality Everyone saw the bleeding kids Everyone knew that this would happen Everyone knew it could be stopped Burning barricades A city like that knows it was wrong A city can't keep them down for long A city like that will bleed again Copenhagen, feel their pain It's sad to see that no one cared Until the tear gas filled the air Burning barricades If you give minorities shelter You will see a culture bloom If you take the shelter down You will see a culture's doom Copenhagen took their house Copenhagen threw them out Copenhagen lost that day Copenhagen had to pay Burning barricades Our house in the middle of the street
