Start Jamming...
[E] [Em]
I'm the blonde mom's chef at a very well
The mama's sassy, but straight to hell
Sixteen, the rebel queen, you know I'm a bit hot
Hot tight
[B] Dead kids [A] in the danger [E] zone
All of [G] you [E] are the first [B] stones
Dead [A] kids, you're not [Em] alone
Sleep on the streets and you're not alone
Hot summer, making all right
The worst city laughs all night
You're not drunk, you're not through
Who would believe [E] what I catch?
[B] Dead kids [A] in the danger zone
[Em] All of you are the first [B] stones
Dead kids, [A] you're not alone
[E] Sleep on the [G] streets and [E] you're not [G] alone
[A] [G]
[Em] Stealing
I
[Am] [G] [Em]
[B]
[A] [Em]
[B] [A]
[Em]
clean, I dig a deep
No more school, I run it for me
Stealing cups, breaking hearts
Pills and thrills, [E] acting [B] smart
Dead kids [A] in the danger [Em] zone
All of [G] you are the first [B] stones
Dead kids, [A] you're not [E] alone
Sleep on the streets [Em] and you're not alone
I was getting ducked in, [E] I happened
[G] [E] Oh yes, I was [G] arrested, [E] oh God, how I [G] [E] tempted
They beat me with the board like a sword
They kicked me in [G] the [E] eye, brain began to fry
This is like a movie, I'm gonna [G] scream
[E] Oh, [G] [E] [G] [E]
Frankie dear, I think I'm gonna
[G] [E] scream, I think I'm
[D#]
[E] gonna scream
Where am I?
You're in a cheap, run-down teenage jail, that's where
Oh my God
Yeah, blondie, you're gonna be here till you're eighteen, so get used to it
Behind the bars, [D] you see a star
[C] Who never had [D] a chance, she could [A] sing, [E] she could dance
You don't sing and dance in juvie, are you?
Behind the [D] walls, they've seen it [C] all Gotta [D] have
Justice,
[C] justice, [E] you're a [F#] wonderland
[G] [G#] [D] Not this, [C] this, [E] a worldwide
[F#] [G] [G#] [E]
Wouldn't you like to know
Behind the fence, [D] there's no defense
[C] There's murder, rape, [D] and riot, in and out
[E] You don't look so, I don't
On the planet sorrow, [D] there's no [C] tomorrow
Gonna get, [D] gonna get
Justice,
[C] justice, [E] don't want your law [F#] and order
[G] [G#] [D] Justice,
[C] justice, [E] a worldwide [F#]
[G] disorder
[G#] You [N]
can't turn off the tears, they crawl a juvenile hall
Cruel reform schools, they don't smile
They got no [E] bail, or jury trial
Child, let's forget tonight
Hey, Shuri, what's the plan?
You grab the guard, [D] in the prison yard
[C] Get his [D] keys and gun, [E] or run
You
[D] [C]
[D] gotta
Justice, [C] justice, [E] don't want your law [F#] and [G] order
[G#] [D] Justice,
[C] [E] a worldwide [F#] [G] disorder
[G#] [N] You go far, it's in your
[G#m] When me, you'll be free
Just be safe, or be late
See the guard, don't hesitate
[N] Joan, I'm getting tired
I've run out of fire
I can't [C#] go [F#m] any farther
[N] But Shuri, you must try harder
Joan!

I can't go on, but I can't leave you
What do I do?
Save yourself, you know what you gotta do
