Lyrics
When they kick at your front door
How you gonna come?
With your hands on your head
Or on the trigger of your gun
When the law break in
How you gonna go?
Shot down on the pavement
Or waiting on death row
You can crush us
You can bruise us
But you’ll have to answer to
Oh, the guns of Brixton
The money feels good
And your life you like it well
But surely your time will come
As in heaven, as in hell
You see, he feels like Ivan
Born under the Brixton sun
His game is called survivin’
At the end of the harder they come
You know it means no mercy
They caught him with a gun
No need for the Black Maria
Goodbye to the Brixton sun
You can crush us
You can bruise us
Yes, even shoot us
But oh-the guns of Brixton
When they kick at your front door
How you gonna come?
With your hands on your head
Or on the trigger of your gun
You can crush us
You can bruise us
Yes, even shoot us
But oh-the guns of Brixton
Shot down on the pavement
Waiting in death row
His game is called survivin’
As in heaven as in hell
You can crush us
You can bruise us
But you’ll have to answer to
Oh, the guns of Brixton

Aguante The Clash, el kenke y Peñarol
I cant even tell you how much this song MEANS to me
cypress hill — what's your name, what's your number?
like 30 years ahead of time
the bass riff is heavenly
A golden nugget
The beginning reminds me of the American Horror Story soundtrack
The Future is unwritten
Paul Simonon getting his shine, I ain't mad at it
Fucking awesome HIdef audio, brother. Twelve thumbs up.
The Clash: l'origine della musica.. sound unico
Listen children, when they kick in your front door, how are you going come? I would suggest let them come. I would suggest if you have a gun put it away. I suggest this matter will be settled in court. Your part is greater if you comply with the law. So the question is. How are you going to come? I say with your hands on your head.
How you gonna cum ( ͡ ° ͜ʖ ͡ ° )
scared everybody ahead …totally paid forward
awesome living ing the last sixty years
the only band that matters
i saw them at The Warehouse in Nola approx 1983, phenomenal. they brought punk to tons of us teenagers n US n late 70s/early 80s
Esto va mas alla del Punk! London Calling, un disco que jamas me puede me puede faltar.
#RIPJoe
the guitar reminds me of 'stump' 😀
(~_~) (-_-) (°_-) ( -°) (><) (o_O) (o_o)!!!!!!!!!!!!
this has been sampled by professor green and fat fat boy slim beats international , just be good to me
The most chilled out song about getting shot in the head in your house.
To all the African Americans:
When they kick at your front door
How you gonna come?
With your hands on your head
Or on the trigger of your gun
Applicable song just about now
If only I were born 30 years ago. I would've found out about great music like this much much sooner.
the instrumental kind of reminds me of the AHS theme song
cypress hill used the sample
Cool to see a punk band use different genres on their album.
The only band that matters.
beloved album
If I had to chose a song to listen to for the rest of my life this is it
Masterpiece!!
nice track, sorry because the band splitted soon..
The clash, sans aucun doute le meilleur groupe Punk!
I wish Paul was lead vocals more often, he has talent 🙁
