There's the Rockabilly Cats

With their pomps real high

Wearin' black drape coats

All real gone guys

Cool skinheads with their rolled up jeans

Lookin' real rough and mighty mean



There's a rumble in Brighton tonight

Ringside seats for the neighborhood fight

There ain't a damn thing that the cops can do

There's a rumble in Brighton tonight



The sew fishhooks under their collars

They got razors in their shoes

I said "Go cat, go" their battle cry

World War 3 is starting to brew



Now the skinheads are all using blackjacks

And they're looking mighty mean

They got chains wrapped around their fingers

And their heads are all shaven clean



There's a rumble in Brighton tonight

Ringside seats for the neighborhood fight

There ain't a damn thing that the cops can do

There's a rumble in Brighton tonight



Well, there ain't a man left standing

So let's all go get a beer

No team is the winner

So we'll see you all next year



There's a rumble in Brighton tonight

Ringside seats for the neighborhood fight

There ain't a damn thing that the cops can do

There's a rumble in Brighton tonight



Rumble in Brighton tonight

Rumble on the beach tonight

Rumble in Brighton tonight

Rumble on the beach tonight

There ain't a damn thing that the cops can do

Line right up for the sideline view

Ringside seats for the neighborhood fight

There's a rumble in Brighton tonight
