BACKSIDE LYRICS

"The Ones"

Well I must have missed that day in school
when they taught the kids the truth
and I must have missed that golden rule
don't trust who don't look like you

Mommy told me do not believe
the ones daddy called the enemy

You're singing that anthem once again
the anthem of a brave american
sitting on the lap of good old Uncle Sam
telling him who you hate
waving your flag mighty and proud
which one is louder, your gun or mouth
you're standing around bragging
about who should and shouldn't be free

Mommy told me do not believe the
ones grandpa said brought the disease

I must have missed that day in school
when they taught the kids the truth
and I must have missed that golden rule
don't trust who don't look like you

Mommy told me do not believe
the ones that don't look like you and me

Fear is the thought we have been taught
of difference from the start
to be afraid of what we're not
setting us all further apart
hating the ones that don't fit in
what kind of life is that to live
hating the ones our parents did
without even knowing what they're about
