Our Town by Redbait Lyrics
We roam the streets of our town
We go out late at night
Hide your face don't speak out in our town
The murder capital
Don't go north of Delmar
If you want to stay alive
Lies
Sit outside on the south side
And you'll be burglarized
Lies
Don't get on the metro
There is no security
Lies
Don't trust anyone
Unless they look like me
Lies
Too many in the streets
Why don't they get a job
They're just a bunch of thugs
An aimless violent mob
All lives matter
Protest is a waste of time
I don't see a protest
For black on black crime
I am not a racist
I just rock racist bands
Whats the problem
That first record stands
I'll argue for the sake of it
You don't run this town
I'll do whatever I want
You need to just calm down
Driving through Ferguson
We don't want to go
Someone tried to talk us down
But we don't want to know
Don't get on the highway
They probably shut it down
They burned down their own town
These are all lies
Ferguson is a place
With barely a tax base
The police raise money
By getting in your face
Going door to door
Handing out citations
Harassing residents
For dress code violations
Ticketed doing 30
In a 25
Talk back to a cop
And you can lose your life
Shut it down
We go out late at night
Hide your face don't speak out in our town
The murder capital
Don't go north of Delmar
If you want to stay alive
Lies
Sit outside on the south side
And you'll be burglarized
Lies
Don't get on the metro
There is no security
Lies
Don't trust anyone
Unless they look like me
Lies
Too many in the streets
Why don't they get a job
They're just a bunch of thugs
An aimless violent mob
All lives matter
Protest is a waste of time
I don't see a protest
For black on black crime
I am not a racist
I just rock racist bands
Whats the problem
That first record stands
I'll argue for the sake of it
You don't run this town
I'll do whatever I want
You need to just calm down
Driving through Ferguson
We don't want to go
Someone tried to talk us down
But we don't want to know
Don't get on the highway
They probably shut it down
They burned down their own town
These are all lies
Ferguson is a place
With barely a tax base
The police raise money
By getting in your face
Going door to door
Handing out citations
Harassing residents
For dress code violations
Ticketed doing 30
In a 25
Talk back to a cop
And you can lose your life
Shut it down
