1. The Riot… Read Full Bio ↴There are at least two acts/bands called The Riot Squad.
1. The Riot Squad were a pop group from London, initially managed and produced by Larry Page and later, for their reunion, by Joe Meek. Members included Graham Bonney (vocals), Ron Ryan (guitar), Len Tuckey (guitar), Mark Stevens (keyboards), Mike Martin (bass), Mitch Mitchell (drums), Rodger Crisp, Terry Clifford, Butch Davis, Derek "Del" Roll. Their only constant member was to be Bob Evans (saxophone), who, after the band split for the first time, "reunited" The Riot Squad with all new musicians.
In early 1967 they were joined by David Bowie, who at the time was recording material for his self-titled debut album. The band consisted of six members: Bowie (lead vocalist, guitar, tenor saxophone), Rod Davies (guitar), Croke Prebble (bass), Bob Evans (saxophone, flute), George Butcher (keyboards) and Derek Roll (drums). This incarnation recorded several as-yet unreleased tracks, including a cover of the The Velvet Underground's "I'm Waiting for the Man" and a Velvets-influenced Bowie original called "Little Toy Soldier".
2. The Riot Squad was also a 'gabber' trance German techno band.
Cast Your Spell On Me
The Riot Squad Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I can't stand it anymore
Cast your spell on me
Like you did before, when we fell in love
Everything you do
Is designed to make me blue
Turn it into colours of every kind
If you can't be the same
Please be kind
Blow my mind
Cast your spell on me
Cast your spell on me
I don't want to see no more
Cast your spell on me
Make me smile again
Or in my misery...
Send me far away
From my body and my mind
I don't want to live in a world of grey
Let me think one day you will say
Now, forever we'll stay you and I
Don't make me cry
Cast your spell on me
Cast your spell on me
I don't want to see no more
Cast your spell on me
Make me smile again
Or in my misery...
Send me far away
From my body and my mind
I don't want to live in a world of grey
Let me think one day you will say
Now, forever we'll stay you and I
Don't make me cry
Cast your spell on me
Cast your spell on me
Oh, cast your spell on me
PLease, cast your spell on me

This is my theory of why we have Andy here
Andy: *texts people because he bored*
Andy: "dude I'm bored"
Ronnie: "wanna come hang with me?"
Andy: "yeah, sounds good. What're you doin"
Ronnie: "oh just some shit for a video, wanna join?"
Andy: "yeah, sounds like fun. Let's confuse all the fans"
Ronnie: "cool dude, see ya soon"
Andy: *arrives at Ronnie's place* "hey"
Ronnie: "hey dude. Let's just dance around like mad dudes and let the girls do their cheerleading stuff"
Andy: "okay"
Both: *start doing random crap and make it into a video*

LYRICS
I met a girl and I really thought she liked me
I truly thought that I had met the one
It was a fail, to no avail
I'm just another victim of the bad girls club
She's like a witch, casting spells, hypnotizing
She made me drink a potion just to fall in love
She got me drunk, tipsy of her love
I'm just another victim of the bad girls club
She's always blowing up my phone
I really wish that she'd leave me alone
I gotta change my number
It's hard for me to slumber when she's outside my home
She called the cops, and made it seem like I was mean
She's not your average lady, she's fucking crazy
Spelled C-U-N-T (bitch)
And after all, the rise and fall
You're not worth my time
I'm calling it quits, right now, this time
You're playing games and all we do is fight
It's getting late so olly-olly-olly-oxen free
All the bad girls come cheer with me
Love's a drug that got me on the run
I'm just another victim of the bad girls club
I'm always paranoid
That she's somehow watching me
Follows me on Twitter, asking if I miss her
Hashtag #setmefree
She googles my name, just to keep some tabs on me
She's not your average lady, she's fucking crazy
Someone help me, please
And after all, the rise and fall
You're not worth my time
I'm calling it quits, right now, this time
You're playing games and all we do is fight
It's getting late so olly-olly-olly-oxen free
All the bad girls come cheer with me
Love's a drug that got me on the run
I'm just another victim of the bad girls club
Alright, alright, alright, settle down, settle down
I need all my bad girls in the house tonight to help me do a cheer
It goes one, two, three, four
Hey, sexy boy, I got you wrapped around my finger
L-O-V-E really doesn't mean much
Your love is like a drug, but it is not enough
Give me a B-A-D, we're the bad girls club
Hey, sexy boy, I got you wrapped around my finger
L-O-V-E really doesn't mean much
Your love is like a drug, but it is not enough
Give me a B-A-D, we're the bad girls club
I'm calling it quits, right now, this time
You're playing games and all we do is fight
It's getting late so olly-olly-olly-oxen free
All the bad girls come cheer with me
Love's a drug that got me on the run
I'm just another victim of the bad girls club
I'm just another victim of the bad girls club
I'm just another victim of the bad girls club

Came here to pay respect to the heaviest song ever written and performed 🤘🤘
@oscarp7510
This song makes me want to throw infants into the middle
@timothybutler5953
Heaviest?
@NU5A
@Timothy Butler Look up “bad girls club live” and there should be a video called “heaviest song in metal history” or something like that. I assume thats what they’re referring to
@timothybutler5953
@@NU5A alright that was pure gold. Thank you for that
@noellereger6432
