come out and play keep m separated

The Offspring

You gotta keep em separated

They re like the latest fashion
They re like a spreading disease
The kids are strappin on their way to the classroom
Getting weapons like 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 guy s colors and the other s don t mix
They re gonna bash it up
Bash it up x3

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

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 a rope

Hey, man you disrespecting me
Take him out
You gotta keeep em separated
Hey, man you talkin back to me
Take him out
You gotta keep em separated
Hey, they don t pay no mind
If your under 18 you won t be doing any time
