I See Red

lyrics

well, honey i support that you're a feminist
but could u please take your boot off my throat?
and i'm fully behind you're LGBT rights
but could u please camp out in someone else's yard?
feel free to express your sexuality
but let's not confuse or exploit young impressionable minds.
and i totally agree that black lives matter
but does that really mean u have to hate me just because i'm white?

red!
i just see red!

i think you'll find they're HUMAN rights

why focus on our differences?
when what's more important is what's the same...
like our mutual dislike of corporate interest
or no desire to see our loved ones killed or maimed

why do you want to put them on the outside?
why do you want to put them out to sea?
why do you wanna put them down
and beat them down
and keep them down?
seems like this shit goes on eternally...
well you'll get no fucking help from me
because red's the only colour i see...
red like the blood that boils inside
red like the rivers that flow thorugh war
red like the heat of society's furnace
we'll turn red wondering that we're fighting for
so when they tell you where to start pointing your fingers
and they turn around and try to get me vexed
well i've only got one question
if you're granted your requests
well, just who do you think they're coming after next?

well, i get that u miss the good old days
but do we really have to dial so far back?

i think you'll find they're HUMAN rights

and i understand that you're feeling really threatened right now
but just who do u trust to have your back?

red!
i just see red!
