lyrics

HOW CAN I HATE PEOPLE I DON'T KNOW?

why do everybody try t make other people look bad?
make tall make em small call 'em nigger when ya can
yr a faggot a fatso yr a fuckin cunt
it's th same t me
wr all racist pigs
i say wr sunk

how can i hate people i dont know...
it's easy, i do it all the time

prejudice is simple
ya just make up a lie
judgemental is mental
it makes ya die inside
yr old, yr ugly, yr a frisbee freak
i hate you why not?
my face is buried
in the ass
of sheep

C

ya say you r my daddy
well i guess i am yr son
but it's worse than that mister
cuz we jus' fightin' over crumbs
red against the blue
guns shootin up bystanders
arabs killin' jews
victimized r victimizer?
what you teachin' me gang boy?
wr all stupid here
lightin fires...

C

look at Narcissus over there, he thinks he's the cat's ass
check out polyester housewife she do anything her daddy ask
how drunk can you get barfly? yr time is up
mr priest with the acolyte boy take yr dick out fill my cup

C
