Dale Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Film at eleven there's a war out in the street
Rolling lucky seven, something feels incomplete
Hands that divide time counting backwards in heat
All that's yours should be mine
Want both sides of the sun to meet
Swing low, sweet sin
Never know 'til I'm in
Riot in English (riot in English)
Riot in English (riot in English)
Somewhere over the cuckoo's nest
Skylark 17
Tiptoes through the tulips, do you know what I mean
Conquered by the best of mice
Lipstick and a phone call later
Domino paradise--all for the price
Will you be the one to save her
Swing low (swing low)
Sweet sin (sweet sin)
Never know, till I'm in
Riot in English (riot in English)
Riot in English
Riot in English (riot in English)
Riot in English
Swing low (swing low) sweet sin (sweet sin) never know til I'm in
Swing low (swing low) sweet sin (sweet sin) never know til I'm in
Lipstick and a phone call later
Riot in English, riot in English [repeat
The song "Riot in English" by Dale and Robert Brookins is a complex piece of work that explores themes of chaos, confusion, and desire. The opening lines of the song evoke an image of a violent conflict, with the singer referencing a war on the streets. The next few lines suggest a feeling of dissatisfaction or incompleteness, with the singer longing for something that is out of reach. The phrase "hands that divide time counting backwards in heat" is particularly intriguing, as it seems to suggest an urgency or desperation that fuels the singer's desires.
The next verse takes the listener on a bit of a journey, referencing the classic film "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" and the song "Tip-Toe Through the Tulips." These seemingly random references add to the sense of chaos and confusion in the song, as the singer jumps from one idea to the next without any clear throughline. However, the final lines of the verse are more concrete, with the singer referencing a "domino paradise" and asking if the listener will be the one to "save her."
Throughout the song, the repeated refrain of "swing low, sweet sin, never know 'til I'm in" adds to the sense of longing and desire that runs through the piece. The final line, "lipstick and a phone call later, riot in English," is both cryptic and evocative, leaving the listener with a sense of uncertainty about what has just occurred.
Overall, "Riot in English" is a rich and complex piece of work that rewards close analysis and interpretation. The song explores themes of desire, chaos, and confusion, with the repeated refrain adding to the sense of longing that runs through the piece.

@rhymeandreasoning You're welcome, I'm 20 and recently discovered MP/Dale and I'm in love with their stuff, not only because I'm a sucker for 80's/early 90's music but because the lyrics are most of the time spot on, their first album is like my bible.
@gamesmaster90
Fantastic. If this was released properly then it would be a household song. Shame, she could have been as big as Madonna.
