Paroles de Keep'Em Separated

You gotta' keep'em separated



(Verse 1)


Like the latest fashion

Like a spreading disease

The kids are strappin' on their way to the classroom

Getting weapons with the greatest of ease



The gangs stake their own campus locale

And if they catch you slippin' then it's all over pal

If one guys colors and the others don't mix

They're gonna bash it up, bash it up, bash it up, bash it up...


Hey - man you talkin' back to me?

Take him out

You gotta keep 'em separated



Hey - man you disrespecting me?

Take him out

You gotta keep 'em separated



Hey they don't pay no mind

If you're under 18 you won't be doing any time

Hey come out and play



(Verse 2)



By the time you hear the siren

It's already too late

One goes to the morgue and the other to jail

One guy's wasted and the other's a waste



*



It goes down the same as the thousand before

No one's getting smarter

No one's learning the score

Your never ending spree of death and violence and hate

Is gonna tie your own rope, tie your own rope, tie your own...



(Chorus)



(Repeat from *)
