lyrics

I never thought that you were funny
Always knew that you were mean
But somehow I had hoped white people
Weren’t as racist as they seem
But before you share this country
You would rather burn it down

And I hear you keep a list of your enemies
Please add me now.

You’re a racist and a liar
You’re a rapist and a fool
You’re the archetypal bigot
and the segregated school
You’re the face of violent hatred now
The world around

And I hear you keep a list of your enemies
Please add me now.

There are many you have added
to your list along the trail
Anyone who isn’t white
And everyone who isn’t male
But I believe that there are rights
With which all people are endowed

And I hear you keep a list of your enemies
Please add me now.

I don’t care what you say is legal
Who or what you call a crime
There is a time for making choices
And we are in that time
I’ll be siding with whoever
You say ought be beaten down

And I hear you keep a list of your enemies
Please add me now

There’s a Nazi at your table
There’s a Klansman at the door
There’s an old familiar hatred
That we all have seen before
And if you think that you are better than that
Time to answer how

Or start making a list of your enemies
And please add me now
