Lyrics:

(Verse):

I read the papers and I know which way you're going.

I watch the T.V. and it shows how little you're knowing.

I call you up when you're around but you don't hear me.

You hear the words but still don't hear, you don't even know me.

(Chorus):

Wake up, this ain't no vacation, she cries, for my reputation, hatred has

never looked that good on you.

I know, she's in ovulation, can't see, the real destination, hatred has

never looked that good on you.

(Verse):

Why sit around while you look down and dance with junkies?

Makes you look weak, makes you look pale, makes you fall down, makes you

look,

(Bridge):

You're raised and you can't see hate on the inside.

Wake up. Your ignorance is free, hate on the outside.

(Spoken):

Keep your arms and hands inside the car at all times.

Time to shave your head and put your Doc Marten boots on!!
