Come Out and Play

You gotta keep 'em separated

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 out 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, 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

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...

Hey, man, you disrespecting me?

Take him out (you gotta keep '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 you're under 18 you won't be doing any time

Hey, come out and play

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...

Hey, man, you talking 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
