Listen
[Verse 1]
She was bored
With a grey and aimless mind
She was born
With a chance that she denied
Oh, she caught my eye
Flew somewhere
To a house every Friday night
Working for her man
Believing that her name would shine
Oh, she caught my mind, yeah
[Chorus]
Everybody listen
There's a riot in the air tonight
And listen
It's a tragedy you can't deny
And listen
She'll be calling out your name tonight
And listen
Everybody listen
[Verse 2]
She had fame
Oh god, what she had won
Look beneath the sheets
In this bed's a fool for fun
Oh, she caught my mind, oh
[Chorus]
Everybody listen
There's a riot in the air tonight
And listen
It's a tragedy you can't deny
And listen
She'll be calling out your name tonight
And listen
Everybody listen
Everybody listen
There's a riot in the air tonight
And listen
It's a tragedy you can't deny
And listen
She'll be calling out your name tonight
And listen
Everybody listen
Everybody listen
Everybody listen, oh
And everybody listen now
Just listen now, no
Just listen now, no
Everybody listen
Everybody listen
Oh, just listen
Just listen
