Verse:

B
I'd go down to the Strip tonight
I'm not on a stay-home trip tonight
Long hair seems to be the main attraction
But the heat is causing all the action

Pre-chorus:

Am G Am C
Bright lights everywhere
F# G Am C
Pretty girls with long blonde hair
F# G Am C G F#
But somehow the people they don't care

Chorus:

B D#m/A# G#
It just doesn't seem fair
B D#m/A# G#
To bug you 'cause you got long hair
B D#m/A# G# F#
Even the parents are beginning to stare

Post-chorus:

B [continue with intro riff]
Because of the sirens on our streets
They used to be neat
But now it's just a place for black and white cars to race
It's causin' a riot
It's causin' a riot, yeah

[guitar solo over intro riff, 8X]

[repeat pre-chorus]

[repeat chorus]

[repeat post-chorus]

Coda [ranted over intro riff]:

It's causin' a riot
It's causin' a riot, everywhere
People runnin' around, riots everywhere
Pushin', pushin', pushin' everywhere [fade]
