lyrics

You saw the faggot in the bathroom
and you said that you were gonna kick his teeth out if he came back around.
Not even sure if you knew his name
he was just another punk with an agenda to push.
And you told yourself you were gonna stand your ground,
not gonna let these kids come around.
And you told your friends that you weren’t fucking around,
this is your town now
this is your town.

Everyone you love
has given up on you.

You came in to work last night
and there was some brown kid behind the counter.
His English might have been alright
but you weren’t gonna stick around and find out.

And you told him that he should get back on
whatever boat brought him so he could find out
why this country was made for you
and why he was gonna be on his way out.

Everyone you love
has given up on you.
